Ongoing Projects
Study to Explore Early Development (SEED Follow-up Studies) Component B: In-Person Assessment of Intellectual Abilities of SEED Participants
The purpose of this study is to gain knowledge about the functioning of individuals with ASD through follow-up assessments of SEED 1-2 participants. This study will evaluate the reliability of childhood measures of intellectual status by comparing SEED participants’ current functioning (aged 8 to 22) with their abilities when they were preschoolers. These data will be used to examine factors that affect the stability of intellectual status, and its ability to predict transition outcomes.
