IAN Research Questions

An in depth look at our project...

The IAN Project is attempting to collect the largest ever data-set on children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs).  Via the Internet, parents of affected children under the age of 18 from all over the United States are sharing their knowledge and experience by answering a series of questions about their child's diagnosis, behavior, family, environment, and services received.  Researchers throughout the country will use that information to learn about the effect and interaction of factors such as genetics, environment, and treatment on the well-being of children.

The IAN Project is built upon a philosophy of openness, collaboration, and sharing with scientists and families alike. Individuals with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), their families, friends, and supporters can explore not only the questions we have asked, but our combined results.

(Researchers who wish to access the data for scientific purposes: please see For Researchers.)

Here, you can take a look at each of the questions currently asked of parents taking part in the IAN Research project. 

Once you are looking through a specific questionnaire, you can click on any question that is highlighted to see our research results so far.  A pie chart like the one below and a written explanation are both provided.  (We will be regularly adding to and updating these.  Keep checking back!)
