Questionnaires include: Behavior Assessment Scale for Children, Conners Rating Scales, PDD Behavior Inventory, Parenting Stress Inventory and the Childrens Sleep Inventory. The parent will also complete two additional questionnaires: Autism Parent Survey and Autism Child Survey. These questionnaires are designed to ascertain participants response to treatment. One questionnaire is for the parent to complete, and the other is for the parent to complete together with the child, if possible. The teacher will fill out the Behavior Assessment Scale for Children, Conners Rating Scales, and PDD Behavior Inventory,. The parent will sign a letter that is addressed to the teacher from the Primary Investigator that gives the teacher permission to complete the forms. The parent will also be asked to keep a structured diary provided noting any changes in behavior that they notice. Entries are to be made at a minimum weekly.
