The goal for this project is to evaluate the psychometrics of the RITA-T in children 3-5 years old and see how this interactive measure works at this age.

We are recruiting:

  • Children ages 3 years to 5y 0 months of any ethnicity and race, and language whose caregiver speaks English, coming for an evaluation because of language or developmental delays, or concerns of autism at CASSI or at the Center for Development and Learning (CDL).
  • Children ages 3 years to 5y 0 months of any ethnicity and race, and language whose caregiver speaks English coming for their well-child visits at the Harriet Lane Clinic.

A member from our research team will meet participating families at the CDL on Broadway, or at CASSI on Greenspring, or at the Harriet Lane Clinic and administer the RITA-T. The study visit will take approximately 30 minutes.

Parking vouchers will be provided when necessary, and children will receive a gift bag with age-appropriate toys upon completion of the study visit.

Thank you and please let us know if you have any questions!: RITA-T@kennedykrieger.org
