The majority of parents of children with ASD in Turkey have a positive attitude towards genetic testing, believing it can help explain the causes of the disorder and provide better treatment. They also agree to use DNA samples for future studies.
We aimed to examine the opinions of parents' having a child with ASD, on genetic testing, in a Turkish sample. 951 parents' attitudes towards genetic testing were included. 89.1% of the parents did not take a genetic test during pregnancy. 87.6% of the parents agreed to take a genetic test if it could explain the cause of ASDs. 93% agreed to take a genetic test, if it would help to have a better treatment in the future. 63.8% of the participants would approve the storage of their DNA samples for the future studies. 94.8% considered being informed about the purpose of taking DNA material for the early diagnosis and 84.2% considered being suggested genetic tests for early diagnosis as important.
