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.

This research study will investigate a Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) group treatment to determine if it is more effective than therapy services that adolescents with ASD and intellectual Disability (ID) are already receiving at school, in the community, or from their doctor. This CBT intervention has been adapted for the learning and language needs of teens with Autism and ID.

For children with developmental disabilities, audiologists often report that they have difficulty measuring behavioral hearing thresholds. The current lack of behavioral procedures that are effective for evaluating hearing in children with developmental disabilities is a significant public health problem, resulting in delayed diagnosis and difficulty fitting amplification in this population. The purpose of this project is to determine the feasibility and reliability of measuring behavioral hearing thresholds in children with developmental differences with an innovative, observer-based procedure.

Debbie Mood and Angela Bonino were selected for an AB Nexus grant. These are collaborative grants between Boulder and Anschutz to encourage collaborations across the two campuses. The project is for implementing an ASD screening program at Children’s Hospital Colorado during an audiology visit. This project will allow us to screen 100 children and then complete a developmental workup on those children who screen positive for ASD.
