On this week’s podcast, Dr. Lori Sacrey of the University of Alberta highlights findings from a multi-site study she led that investigated how well parent report measures could predict an ASD diagnosis for at-risk infants. Plus, the journal Autism decided to move away from the puzzle piece symbol in this new era of autism research.
Podcast: Improving early detection of ASD by listening to parents
The journal Autism has compiled and published an entire issue dedicated to females with ASD. The editors published a special call for studies on this topic and put them together here: http://journals.sagepub.com/toc/auta/21/6. Most of them are open access and can be downloaded free of charge. Thank you to William Mandy and Meng-Chuan Lai for their extraordinary efforts for making this happen.
