Project end date: April 30, 2025

Contact project organizer

The Anxiety Stress and Autism Program (ASAP Lab), directed by Dr. Connor Kerns, is currently recruiting autistic adults and clinical professionals for an upcoming study!

The goal of this study is to establish a consensus between both autistic adults and expert clinicians around ideal assessment practices for diagnosing autistic adults. Through this effort, we hope to contribute to the development of more collaborative, effective, and inclusive diagnostic practices for autistic adults.

Brief study details

We are seeking input from autistic individuals who have received an autism diagnosis in adulthood (18+) within the last 5 years.

Eligible participants will complete three online surveys spread over several months, with each survey taking approximately 45 minutes to one hour.

Participants will receive $20 CAD per survey completed via an Amazon Gift Card.
