DescriptionDescription |
The BSRC database contains longitudinal behavioral assessment data for more than 5,000 infant siblings from over 30 separate research projects worldwide. Each year, all of the BSRC member sites contribute data to the database, steadily expanding its size and power. This resource has led to findings and discoveries that have had a substantial impact on the lives of families with autism. These include: recurrence risk in autism families, the role of head size in autism diagnosis, stability of diagnosis, and early behavioral predictors and developmental outcomes in those without an ASD diagnosis. |
