nameDeprecated PhenX measure - symptoms of autism spectrum disorders
descriptionA questionnaire to assess autism spectrum disorders (ASD), a group of developmental problems that includes autism, Asperger's syndrome, Rett syndrome and the category of Pervasive Developmental Disorders Not Otherwise Specified. Autism spectrum disorders are characterized by a lack of social interaction, difficulties in verbal and nonverbal communication, and restricted, repetitive, and stereotyped patterns of behavior (American Psychiatric Association, 2000). This measure is used to screen an individual for the symptoms of autism spectrum disorders. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), it is estimated that between 1 in 80 and 1 in 240 with an average of 1 in 110 children in the United States have an autism spectrum disorder (Centers for Disease Control, 2009). Autism displays a familial pattern as first-order relatives of those with autism spectrum disorders are at greater risk for autism and other developmental problems than the general population (American Psychiatric Association, 2000).
