New Test to Screen Children at age 1 for Autism
http://yourlife.usatoday.com/health/medical/autism/story/2011/04/New-checklist-could-detect-autism-by-age-1/46590470/1?loc=interstitialskip
I saw this yesterday in USA Today. And thought some might be interested in details, particularly those that have young children or know someone that has young children ,that is interested in early intervention, and a way to determine if their child has Autism at age 1.
The article states the screening test is available online, for anyone that is interested in looking at the test.
The article also states that the test does not screen for Autism, developed later in life. I'm thinking that would probably include Autism that does not have a developmental delay in childhood, like Aspergers, but I'm not sure. Maybe someone else could clarify that point, that has specific knowledge of it.
