Autism Self Assessment
Autism Self Assessment
If you, as a parent, caregiver, teacher, or pediatrician, notice behaviors in a child that may suggest autism, beginning with a self-assessment can be a helpful first step. An autism self-assessment involves observing and evaluating a child’s behavior using structured questionnaires or checklists. There are several online at-home self-assessment questionnaires that can provide preliminary information.
While online questionnaires can be a valuable tool for initial evaluation, they should not be considered a final diagnosis. They offer a structured way to identify behaviors and traits that are consistent with autism but lack the comprehensive nature of a professional autism assessment.
