The program applied to parents with children with autism will be carried out once a week for 60 minutes, for 8 weeks, in 8 sessions in total. The program will be conducted in face-to-face groups. Sessions will be held in a suitable area in the practice area. In each 60-minute session, it is planned to be 20 minutes of narration on the subject of the session, accompanied by a power point presentation, and the remaining 40 minutes of exercise, meditation practices and sharing experiences. In the table indicating the general operation of the sessions within the scope of the research; The purpose, target, teaching method, material place, time, session content and application steps of each session will be given to the participants. Awareness-Based Stress Reduction Program Applied to Parents with Children with Autism will be given to the participants in the first week, including the important points of the program, prepared by the researchers, and expert opinions will be taken.

| Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21) | The scale consists of 21 items and three sub-dimensions. Each of the seven items that make up each sub-dimension of the scale measures depression, anxiety and stress. The DASS-21 scale is a four-point Likert-type scale and the items are evaluated between 0 and 3 (0 = not at all suitable for me, 1 = somewhat appropriate for me, 2 = usually suitable for me, 3 = completely suitable for me). There is no reverse item in the scale. The total scores of the scale range from 0 to 21 for each sub-dimension. In the validity and reliability study, the Cronbach-alpha coefficient was determined as 0.87 for the depression sub-dimension, 0.85 for the anxiety sub-dimension, and 0.81 for the stress sub-dimension. The Cronbach-alpha coefficient for the Turkish version of the Depression, Anxiety and Stress scale was determined as 0.88 for the depression sub-dimension, 0.80 for the anxiety sub-dimension and 0.87 for the stress sub-dimension (Sarıçam, 2018). | First assessment will be made at the baseline (pre-intervention) |

| Beck Hopelessness Scale (BUS) | It was developed to determine the degree of pessimism of the individual for the future. The scale, which consists of a total of 20 items, is scored between 0-1 and is a self-assessment type scale. It can also be applied as a group. It is a scale that can be easily applied to literate children, young people and adults without time limit. The scale is evaluated in three sub-dimensions regarding the future (Future Emotions, Loss of Motivation, Future Expectations). 20 items in the scale are answered as "Yes and No", each inconsistent answer is scored with 0 and each compatible answer with 1 point. "yes" to eleven items (2, 4, 7, 9, 11, 12, 14, 16, 17, 18, 20) and 9 items (1, 3, 5, 6, 8, 10, 13, 15, 19) "no" answer is evaluated with 1 point. A high total score (in the range of 0-20) is considered as "high level of hopelessness". |
