Use of Interactive Smartphone Tasks for Remote Assessment of Symptom Severity in Autism Spectrum Disorder
In this poster you will learn:
- Development of novel treatments for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) requires accurate measurement of symptom severity in response to treatment
- Current methods to assess symptom severity in individuals with ASD require lengthy, in-person assessments administered by trained clinicians
- Traditional assessments of ASD limit scalability in clinical trials as they are burdensome for patients, caretakers, and clinicians, and can lead to subjective measurements
- Use of digital tools to measure disease severity is becoming more prevalent in clinical research; here we present a smartphone-based technology for remote measurement of ASD symptomatology.
