Description

This project will study a commonly used autism screening tool to see if it works well for young children who have an older brother or sister with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Families will be asked to fill out forms about their child’s behavior. They may also be asked to complete a follow-up phone interview and to come to Vanderbilt to receive a free evaluation.

This study is funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. It is also being conducted at the University of Connecticut.

Participant Criteria

• Babies between 16 months and 30 months old
• who have an older brother or sister with ASD
