Are Developmental Monitoring and Screening Better Together for Early Autism Identification Across Race and Ethnic Groups?

Brian Barger et al.

Summary: The study analyzed data from the NSCH (2016-2018) to examine the associations between joint monitoring and screening and early identified cases of ASD in children under 5, as well as the relationships across racial/ethnic subgroups. The findings indicated that joint monitoring and screening, as well as monitoring alone, were associated with early identification of ASD cases across different race groups. However, caution is needed as using monitoring and screening items solely for identification purposes may not be accurate, and further research on joint monitoring with screening is necessary.
