Neurodiversity Survey

NAS49726

Hello everyone! I am a student at the University of North Carolina, Asheville. Several of us are trying to put together a development model for autistic children that is autistic-specific--meaning, their development is not simply compared to neurotypical children. To do this, we've made a survey to see when certain communication milestones are reached. We believe (and some of us have directly experienced) in a different trajectory that should not simply be considered a deficit/delay from "normal." Such a perspective needs to be integrated into the medical community, but it takes a good deal of empirical support! If you have a 5-10 minutes to spare to take this survey, we'd really appreciate it! I am happy to answer any questions. This is not a scam, or spam, or anything of the sort--I am trying to get genuine input from the autistic community.

Here is the survey:

  • Hi NAS49726,

    Unfortunately we don't allow people to use the NAS community to conduct surveys or other forms of research. This is in the community rules which you can view here: https://community.autism.org.uk/p/rules
