No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal of the study is to assess a new autism evaluation model that would include the addition of a Level-2 autism screener, the Rapid Interactive Screening Test for Autism in Toddlers (RITA-T), to the developmental screening already done by the child's pediatrician.

The study hypotheses:

1. The PEARS intervention will show high feasibility to primary care physicians (PCPs) and patient families.
2. The PEARS intervention will lead to increased parent activation around autism diagnosis.

Play-based assessment (RITA-T)

The RITA-T is a play-based assessment that involves nine different activities that can be done safely with a child seated in the exam room. After scoring the RITA-T, the PEARS PCP will immediately provide feedback to the parent regarding results and next steps. In addition, parents will complete certain assessments/surveys during the study to evaluate the program.
