| Summary: | The stress level of parents of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is
higher than parents of children with normal conditions. This can make parents
more sensitive to social stigma and to be closed off from people who do not
understand their situation. A positive response in the form of happiness can
minimize the stress level of parents. Social support is one of the factors that causes
happiness for parents of ASD children. In this thesis, researchers designed a mobile
application that can help parents of children with ASD to get social support in the
form of emotional support, information, and groups. The method used in this study
is the design thinking method, by collecting data through questionnaires,
observation and interviews. From the research results, it was found that parents
currently need a parenting application that can provide them with comfort in
obtaining social support. Based on the results of testing on users, it is known that
the Parentime application has been able to facilitate users in obtaining convenience
from communicating, exchanging information, consulting, and has met usability
points, so it can be said that the application of the concept is in accordance with
user needs. |
