Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of the current study is to determine if pre-exposure through video modeling will enhance testing compliance in a population of children who are receiving a diagnostic evaluation for Autism.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The purpose of the current study is to determine if pre-exposure through video modeling will enhance testing compliance in a population of children who are receiving a diagnostic evaluation for Autism. Another purpose of this study is to determine if pre-exposure to the test setting can increase the compliance on individual test measures. To test the central hypothesis and accomplish the study objective, 2 aims guide the proposed study.

1. Determine the extent to which pre-exposure to expectations and tasks that occur during the audiological evaluation will increase audiological testing compliance. Hypothesis: Children receiving the intervention video, which will model what they will experience during the audiological evaluation, will show greater compliance during the evaluation than children who receive the placebo video.
2. Determine the extent to which enhanced testing compliance will increase the number of test measures obtained during an audiological evaluation. Hypothesis: Children who are more compliant during the audiological evaluation will allow the audiologist to obtain more test measures in a single appointment than the children who are less compliant.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Video Modeling Intervention

The intervention group receives a video that is a behavior modeling video that walks through the entire audiological evaluation. It also includes tips for caregivers to practice with their child before the appointment.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Video Modeling Intervention

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Prior to arrival of the audiological evaluation, the child and caregiver will be required to watch one of two videos created by the research personnel. One video, the intervention video, is a behavior modeling video walking through the entire audiological evaluation. It also includes tips for caregivers to practice with their child before the appointment. The other video is a placebo video that discusses hearing, listening and ears, that does not discuss tips for caregivers to practice with their child before the appointment. The placebo video is not related to the audiological evaluation.

Placebo Video

The other video is a placebo video that discusses hearing, listening and ears, that does not discuss tips for caregivers to practice with their child before the appointment. The placebo video is not related to the audiological evaluation.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Placebo Video

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The other video is a placebo video that discusses hearing, listening and ears, that does not discuss tips for caregivers to practice with their child before the appointment. The placebo video is not related to the audiological evaluation.
