The purpose of this study is to understand how children's brains process sounds and language. Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Intellectual and Developmental Delay (IDD), or Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) often have trouble understanding sounds that are too close together compared to Typically Developing Controls (children without ASD, IDD, or DLD). Fast changes in speech can be hard for children. This may be awkward during conversations and difficult in social situations. This research will see if trouble with processing sounds contributes to language difficulties in children with ASD, IDD, and/or DLD.

The purpose of the study is to learn more about the experience of caregivers who have a child diagnosed with autism. We also want to better understand what is working well in healthcare in the US. This study is open to primary caregivers of a child (aged 3-17) who has been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder in the last year. Participants must have immigrated to the US and identify as Hispanic or Latinx. Study staff will interview participants about their experiences as a caregiver of an autistic child. This one-time interview will last 60-90 minutes in Spanish or English.

Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and Childrens National Hospital are studying daily living skills like cooking, cleaning, and money management and their impact on quality of life for autistic individuals. This study is funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and is led by Ben Yerys, PhD and Lauren Kenworthy, PhD.

The goal of this research study is to investigate early development differences in children. This study enrolls children with autism AND children without autism.

Research has shown that table top role playing games (RPGs) like Dungeons & Dragons can help autistic people, as the game allows people to practice social skills and interaction in a safe environment while having fun. The goal of this new research project is to determine how aware parents and providers are that games like Dungeons & Dragons can help and what their experience is like if child(ren) use such games.
