The Comprehensive Autistic Trait Inventory (CATI): development and validation of a new measure of autistic traits in the general population [PDF]

Molecular Autism, 2021
Abstract Background Traits and characteristics qualitatively similar to those seen in diagnosed autism spectrum disorder can be found to varying degrees in the general population. To measure these traits and facilitate their use in autism research, several questionnaires have been developed that provide broad measures of

Is the association between mothers’ autistic traits and childhood autistic traits moderated by maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index?

Molecular Autism, 2023
Background Previous studies showed that there is a positive association between mothers’ and children’s autistic traits. We also tested if this association is more pronounced in mothers with a higher pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI).
