More about the study:
The purpose of this study is not to promote genetic testing or to persuade individuals to undergo genetic testing. This research study will use an interview approach. Interviews will be conducted in person or via Zoom based on participants’ preferences. Each interview will last up to 1 hour and will be audio recorded to capture details. After the interview, each participant will receive a $25 Amazon gift card as a thank you for participating.
Findings from this project will provide guidelines for genetic education to address concerns among adults with ASD regarding genetic testing and assist them in making informed decisions.
