Update to request for survey data

[Guest guest]

Hello again. Thursday night I posted a message asking for childrens' CARS

scores and the number of ASD siblings (if any). From the responses that I

have received it seems that few people have CARS scores. I guess I

shouldn't be that surprised - I don't even have my own son's! I just figured

with

the mass audience of the internet groups I'd get enough people who had the

info.

So on to plan B. Can anyone who knows their ATEC score send that to me

(again, with the number of ASD sibs as well)? ATEC stands for Autism

Treatment Evaluation Checklist and is available online from the Autism

Research Institute. Because its online and quick to do (it only takes 5 minutes

to complete) I'm sure a lot more of you will have these scores, and I hope that

if you don't, you wouldn't mind spending the few minutes to get it. I am

especially in need of families who do have more than one child on the

spectrum. I have only heard from two so far. The link for the scoring program

can be found at http://autism.com/atec. Since it is an evaluation score to be

done periodically to assess treatment, some people may have multiple scores

for one child. I would like to get the baseline score (the first score you

received) - otherwise, just the earliest (or only) score will do. This isn't a

terribly formal study, the point is to practice statistical analysis, not

publish our

results. Again, I will need this data by Sunday, April 25 and please send it

to

klevermore@.... Thank you so much for your help. I hope our project

will be enlightening for my group and my class.
