Participant Flow
Recruited via social media advertisement from Jan-Mar, 2024. A post about the study was boosted 3 times on both Instagram and Facebook. Posts included a link and a QR code that directed interested individuals to a webpage with further information about the study: https://dfusion.my.canva.site/. They were then provided with a link to an eligibility screener. Eligible individuals were contacted via text or email and provided with access to webpage to book a time for a consent video call.
Individuals who consented to participate in the study but did not attend the initial study observation and did not respond to attempts to contact were not assigned to study groups. All individuals who completed the timepoint on data collection activities were assigned to study groups.

Video Library Group
This arm received the intervention. Participants were assigned their study group following the collection of the timepoint one observational and survey data. Batches were assigned on a weekly basis using stratified randomization to assign participants to the intervention and control groups. The covariates used for stratification were diagnostic status (self-diagnosed and professionally diagnosed and employment/education status (currently employed or attending school or not).
Following timepoint 1 data collection, participants assigned to the treatment group were provided access to the SkillTalk for AYA Microskills video library and asked to view 75 minutes of assigned videos. The library includes a curriculum covering skills such as setting boundaries, resolving conflict, and emotional regulation. After a month of access, participants took part in a second round of data collection, which was followed by another three months of passive usage of the assigned resource. The study concluded with a final round of data collection.

Flyer Library Group
This arm received the intervention upon completion of follow-up study activities. Participants were assigned to their study group following the collection of the timepoint one observational and survey data. Batches were assigned on a weekly basis using stratified randomization to assign participants to the intervention and control groups. The covariates used for stratification were diagnostic status (self-diagnosed and professionally diagnosed and employment/education status (currently employed or attending school or not).
Following timepoint 1 data collection, participants assigned to the attention control group were provided with one month of access to a flyer site with written content on topics not included in the evaluation. This included seven written flyers on the topics of asking for and receiving consent, autism and law enforcement, autistic burnout, navigating health care, unmasking autism, job interview protocol, and workplace accommodations. After a month of access, participants took part in a second round of data collection, which was followed by another three months of passive usage of the assigned resource. The study concluded with a final round of data collection. After the study was finished, control group participants received three months of access to the intervention, to use if they wished.

PRIMARY outcome
Timeframe: Baseline (T1), 1 month (T2), and 4 months (T3)Population: All possible participants included at each time point. The reduced numbers reflects those lost to follow up. Further, 3 video files were corrupted or cut off and could not be coded.
Based on a rubric created for this study of the demonstrable skills for the given recorded roleplay conversation. The points earned on the rubric are summed to create a total score. The scale ranges from 0 to 160 with a higher score indicating higher skill usage.

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: Baseline (T1), 1 month (T2), and 4 months (T3)Based on the ICQ; Buhrmester et al, 1988. 40-item scale includes subscales: Initiating relationships, self-disclosure, asserting displeasure with others' actions, providing emotional support, and managing interpersonal conflicts. Respondents use a 5-point rating scale to indicate their level of competence and comfort in handling each type of situation (from 1 = "I'm poor at this; I'd feel so uncomfortable and unable to handle this situation, I'd avoid it if possible" to 5 = I'm EXTREMELY good at this; I'd feel very comfortable and could handle this situation very well"). The scores from the question are summed to create a total score. The score range is between 40 and 200. Higher values indicate more communication competence.

Based on a scale by Rothman, Holmes et al 2022. The 16-item scale assessing how participants manage rejection and jealousy. Respondents use a 5-point rating scale to indicate the degree to which they agree with each statement. Add points for each item to create a total scale score. If a respondent skipped two more items, do not score. The score ranges between 16-80. Higher scores indicate better coping with jealousy.

Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Depression Short Form. This adult measure is the 8-item PROMIS Depression Short Form that assesses the pure domain of depression in individuals age 18 and older. Each item on the measure is rated on a 5-point scale (1=never; 2=rarely; 3=sometimes; 4=often; and 5=always) with a range in score from 8 to 40 with higher scores indicating greater severity of depression. These raw scores are summed and converted to a T-Score. For the T-Score a higher score indicates greater severity of depression. Generally, a T-score below 55 is considered normal, 55-60 is mild, 60-70 is moderate, and 70 or higher is severe. PROMIS T-scores are standardized to a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10.

PROMIS (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System) Life Satisfaction Short Form is a 5-item for that assesses one's cognitive evaluation of life experiences and whether one likes his/her life or not. Each item on the measure is rated on a 5-point scale (1=never; 2=rarely; 3=sometimes; 4=often; and 5=always). The raw scores are summed and converted to the corresponding T-Score. PROMIS uses T-scores with a population mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. A higher score represents more life satisfaction.
