The first aim of this study was to construct/validate a subscale--with cut-offs considering gender/age differences--for the school-age Child Behavior CheckList (CBCL) to screen for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) applying both data-driven (N = 1666) and clinician-expert (N = 15) approaches. Further, we compared these to previously established CBCL…

Jensen, Kelly; Noazin, Sassan; Bitterfeld, Leandra; Carcelen, Andrea; Vargas-Cuentas, Natalia I.; Hidalgo, Daniela; Valenzuela, Alejandra; Roman-Gonzalez, Avid; Krebs, Casey; Clement, Vincent; Nolan, Cody; Barrientos, Franklin; Mendoza, Ardi Knobel; Noriega-Donis, Paola; Palacios, Claudia; Ramirez, Andrea; Vittet, Macarena; Hafeez, Emil; Torres-Viso, Mariana; Velarde, Myriam; Moulton, Lawrence H.; Powers, Michael D.; Gilman, Robert H.; Zimic, Mirko – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Most children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), in resource-limited settings (RLS), are diagnosed after the age of four. Our work confirmed and extended results of Pierce that eye tracking could discriminate between typically developing (TD) children and those with ASD. We demonstrated the initial 15 s was at least as discriminating as the…
