Summary

This study tests whether a special technique called the 'mutual gaze procedure' helps improve social communication, language, and daily living skills in young Hispanic autistic children (18-42 months old) from low-income families. About 200 children will receive 16 sessions of a culturally adapted early intervention, with some sessions including the gaze technique and others not. Researchers will measure changes in social attention, communication, and adaptive behaviors before, right after, and three months after the program.
