G. Social Responsiveness

You have reached the end of the survey.
Thank you for participating!
You and your child may also be eligible to take part in an in-person evaluation of learning abilities, at no cost
to you. You might remember that your child received an in-person evaluation in the original SEED study. This
second evaluation will help us learn how abilities change over time. Like the first evaluation, we will measure
verbal and nonverbal abilities compared to other people the same age.
You and your child are under no obligation to take part in the in-person evaluation, but if you are interested
and would like to learn more, please indicate your interest below.
☐ Yes, please contact me. I would like to learn more about this follow-up in-person evaluation.
☐ No, I am not interested in learning more about this follow-up in-person evaluation.
Note to CNI: This final question is also included at the end of the Survey Supplement for SEED 1 Caregivers (i.e.,
Young Adult Supplement) and is only intended for SEED 1 & 2 families from the CO, GA, & MD SEED sites.
