What is the earliest a child can be assessed for ASD?
Retrospective analysis suggests that differences in development between typically developing children and those with autism may be apparent by age 6 months, Bolton et al.(2012) NICE (2013)p.8. At age 6 months, differences in fine motor skills and social skills and communication, and concerns about vision were associated with subsequent diagnosis of autism. Differences in hearing, vocabulary and understanding words, and in feeding difficulties and fads were apparent by age 15 months. At age 18 months, more widespread differences were associated with a subsequent diagnosis of autism: listening and responding to sounds, play and imitation, health concerns and repetitive and unusual behaviours. Temperamental traits and differences in bowel habit and stool characteristics were noticed by age 24 months, and by 30 months differences in crying and tempers were associated with autism. (NICE p.9). This confirms that diagnosis under the age of 2 years can and be validly established. A diagnosis of autism can be given to an infant over the age 20 of months here at LR Psychology Services.
