Seaver Autism Center at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine - Factors influencing the timing of diagnoses

The Autism Science Foundation is collaborating with social science researchers at the Seaver Autism Center at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine who are seeking to identify factors influencing the timing of diagnoses in individuals with autism spectrum disorders.

We invite you to participate in this research by completing a short survey. The survey is specifically for parents of children with ASD and focuses on timing issues, i.e. when parents, family members, and friends, began to recognize that a child's development was not proceeding in a typical manner.

The survey should take you about 10 minutes to complete. Everyone who completes the survey will be entered in a drawing to receive a free IPAD. After you complete the survey, you MUST return to the ASF Facebook Event Page and post a comment that you completed the survey. We'll draw a winner soon.
