Screening Tool for Autism in Toddlers and Young Children (STAT™)

The STAT is an empirically based, interactive measure developed to screen for autism in children between 24 and 36 months of age. It is designed for use by community service providers who work with young children in assessment or intervention settings and who have experience with autism. The STAT consists of 12 items and takes about 20 minutes to administer. Activities assess key social and communicative behaviors including imitation, play, requesting, and directing attention.

Training on the STAT can be accomplished in three ways, depending on your professional needs and background.
