Study Summary

One of the major methodological obstacles to more informed policies and programs to support the successful transition to adulthood in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is the absence of suitable measures of meaningful outcomes for adults. Currently available options include (a) measures designed for children that largely fail to capture concepts pertinent in adulthood or (b) the use of broad, often dichotomous outcomes (e.g., employed or not) that are insufficiently sensitive for monitoring progress. The objective of this project is to develop efficient and validated proxy and self-report measures for autistic adults and adults with other IDD in the domains of relationships, employment, autonomy, and life satisfaction called the REALS. This study will build on prior success in applying methods from the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS®) to measurement development in ASD and will utilize a national sample of 500 autistic adults capable of self-report and 500 caregivers of autistic adults representative of the entire range of speaking level.

Primary Outcome

The completion of these aims will generate, for the first time, a reliable and valid measure of adulthood functioning in ASD that is efficient and broadly applicable across the full range of functioning.
