Investigating the Clinical Utility of the Oxford Virtual Autism Assessment Tool (OVAAT)
The goal of the study is to evaluate a new Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) diagnostic tool (Oxford Virtual Autism Assessment Tool (OVAAT)) to see whether it can: * Be able to identify autistic traits * Be able to distinguish between autistic and non-autistic young people * Is the tool better, similar or worse than another evidence-based observational tool (ADOS-2) in identifying features of autism?
• Group 1: 13-18 year old young people waiting for an autism assessment in the Oxfordshire CAMHS Neurodevelopmental Conditions (NDC) pathway who have access to and are able to use a laptop or desktop computer and a quiet place to complete the assessment.
• Group 2: 13-18 year old young people with no neurodevelopmental or mental health conditions who have access to and are able to use a laptop or desktop computer and a quiet place to complete the assessment.
