Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by two main impairments in communication, social interaction and restricted, repetitive behaviors and interests. According to statistics from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2009 the rate of autistic children was 1/110. Early diagnosis of autistic children will help increase the effectiveness of intervention. Therefore, early detection of signs of autism plays an important role in diagnosing and providing timely intervention plans for children.

Autism is a disease that can occur in any child. However, with unclear signs and symptoms, you can refer to the M-Chat-R/F autism screening test questions for children from 16 to 36 months old in the following article.

The M-CHAT checklist is a tool that helps parents self-assess whether their child has autism spectrum disorder or not. From there, autism can be screened and children can receive early treatment.

Autism spectrum disorder is a disease that seriously affects a person's social skills, behavior and communication ability. It usually appears when children are under 2 years old and causes major obstacles to the child's development. Therefore, screening for autism spectrum disorder plays an extremely important role in the treatment of this disease. When autism is detected and treated early, it will help children develop their full potential.
