The U.S. prevalence of ASD is estimated at 1% to 2%. In addition to the profound, lifelong impacts on individuals’ functioning given the core deficits in social-communication abilities, a high proportion of children with ASD also have one or more other developmental impairments such as intellectual disability or attention-deficithyperactivity-disorder and children with ASDs have higher than expected prevalences of health conditions such as obesity, asthma and respiratory disorders, eczema and skin allergies, migraine headaches, and gastrointestinal symptoms and disorders. Historically, young children have been the focus of ASD research: Diagnosis and symptom detection at young ages, prenatal or early-life risk factors, and the effect of early intervention programs. Meanwhile, the number of children diagnosed with ASD each year has steadily increased and, as children age, the prevalence of adults diagnosed with ASD will likewise increase for several decades. Despite this ongoing demographic shift—which some have called ‘‘the autism tsunami’’—there has been relatively E:\FR\FM\21SEN1.SGM 21SEN1 44185 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 182 / Thursday, September 21, 2017 / Notices little research on ASD in adolescence and adulthood. While there is research showing that the majority of ASD diagnoses made in early childhood are retained in adolescence with mostly stable in symptom severity, there are major gaps in our understanding of the health, functioning, and experiences of adolescents with ASD and other developmental disabilities. Many of these topics are especially relevant to public health: Adolescents and adults with ASD have been shown to have frequent health problems, high healthcare utilization and specialized service needs, high caregiving burden, require substantial supports to perform daily activities, are likely to be bullied, or isolated from society, and are likely to have food allergies or put on restrictive diets of questionable benefit. Many of these problems emerge after early childhood, and more studies are needed to estimate the frequency, severity, and predictive factors for these important outcomes in diverse cohorts of individuals with autism and other developmental conditions. SEED Teen is a follow-up study of children who participated in the first phase of the SEED case-control study (SEED 1) in 2007–2011 when they were 2 to 5 years of age. SEED includes one of the largest cohorts of children assembled with ASD. Children will be identified from four SEED sites in Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania. Three groups of children will be included: Children with ASD, children with other developmental (non-ASD) conditions (DD comparison group), and children from the general population who were initially sampled from birth records (POP comparison group). The children and parents previously enrolled in SEED 1 represent a unique opportunity to better understand the long term trajectory of children identified as having ASD at early ages. Mothers or other primary caregivers who participated in SEED 1 will be recontacted when their child is 13–17 years of age and asked to complete two self-administered questionnaires (SEED Teen Health and Development Survey and the Social Responsiveness Scale) about their child’s health, development, education, and current functioning. Information from this study will allow researchers to assess the long term health and functioning of children with ASD and other developmental disabilities, family impacts associated with ASD and other DDs, and service needs and use associated with having and ASD and other DDs, particularly during the teen years. We estimate that 1,410 SEED families are potentially eligible to participate in SEED Teen. Reading the letter and other materials in the invitation mailing will take approximately five minutes. We estimate that a minimum of 60% of parents/caregivers will be sent the invitation mailing or will be successfully contacted and participate in the invitation call (approximately 15 minutes). We estimate that 80% of the families who participate in the invitation call will meet the eligibility criteria for SEED Teen and 70% of those will enroll in SEED Teen. We assume all enrolled families will complete the follow-up call to confirm data collection packet receipt (approximately 10 minutes) and will review the materials in the data collection packet. Finally, we estimate that 90% of enrolled parents/caregivers will complete two self-administered questionnaires (SEED Teen Health and Development Survey and the Social Responsiveness Scale) and two supplemental consent forms. The two questionnaires will take approximately 60 minutes to complete, plus an additional 5 minutes to read and sign the informed consent. Therefore, we estimate the total burden hours are 303. There are no costs to participants other than their time.

    Study to Explore Early Development, Teen Follow-Up Study (SEED 
Teen)--New--National Center on Birth Defects and Developmental 
Disabilities (NCBDDD), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 
(CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder 
characterized by impairments in social interaction and communication 
and stereotyped behaviors and interests. The U.S. prevalence of ASD is 
estimated at 1% to 2%. In addition to the profound, lifelong impacts on 
individuals' functioning given the core deficits in social-
communication abilities, a high proportion of children with ASD also 
have one or more other developmental impairments such as intellectual 
disability or attention-deficit-hyperactivity-disorder and children 
with ASDs have higher than expected prevalences of health conditions 
such as obesity, asthma and respiratory disorders, eczema and skin 
allergies, migraine headaches, and gastrointestinal symptoms and 
disorders.
    Historically, young children have been the focus of ASD research: 
Diagnosis and symptom detection at young ages, prenatal or early-life 
risk factors, and the effect of early intervention programs. Meanwhile, 
the number of children diagnosed with ASD each year has steadily 
increased and, as children age, the prevalence of adults diagnosed with 
ASD will likewise increase for several decades. Despite this ongoing 
demographic shift--which some have called ``the autism tsunami''--there

little research on ASD in adolescence and adulthood.
    While there is research showing that the majority of ASD diagnoses 
made in early childhood are retained in adolescence with mostly stable 
in symptom severity, there are major gaps in our understanding of the 
health, functioning, and experiences of adolescents with ASD and other 
developmental disabilities. Many of these topics are especially 
relevant to public health: Adolescents and adults with ASD have been 
shown to have frequent health problems, high healthcare utilization and 
specialized service needs, high caregiving burden, require substantial 
supports to perform daily activities, are likely to be bullied, or 
isolated from society, and are likely to have food allergies or put on 
restrictive diets of questionable benefit. Many of these problems 
emerge after early childhood, and more studies are needed to estimate 
the frequency, severity, and predictive factors for these important 
outcomes in diverse cohorts of individuals with autism and other 
developmental conditions.
    SEED Teen is a follow-up study of children who participated in the 
first phase of the SEED case-control study (SEED 1) in 2007-2011 when 
they were 2 to 5 years of age. SEED includes one of the largest cohorts 
of children assembled with ASD. Children will be identified from four 
SEED sites in Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania. 
Three groups of children will be included: Children with ASD, children 
with other developmental (non-ASD) conditions (DD comparison group), 
and children from the general population who were initially sampled 
from birth records (POP comparison group).
    The children and parents previously enrolled in SEED 1 represent a 
unique opportunity to better understand the long term trajectory of 
children identified as having ASD at early ages. Mothers or other 
primary caregivers who participated in SEED 1 will be re-contacted when 
their child is 13-17 years of age and asked to complete two self-
administered questionnaires (SEED Teen Health and Development Survey 
and the Social Responsiveness Scale) about their child's health, 
development, education, and current functioning. Information from this 
study will allow researchers to assess the long term health and 
functioning of children with ASD and other developmental disabilities, 
family impacts associated with ASD and other DDs, and service needs and 
use associated with having and ASD and other DDs, particularly during 
the teen years.
    We estimate that 1,410 SEED families are potentially eligible to 
participate in SEED Teen. Reading the letter and other materials in the 
invitation mailing will take approximately five minutes. We estimate 
that a minimum of 60% of parents/caregivers will be sent the invitation 
mailing or will be successfully contacted and participate in the 
invitation call (approximately 15 minutes). We estimate that 80% of the 
families who participate in the invitation call will meet the 
eligibility criteria for SEED Teen and 70% of those will enroll in SEED 
Teen. We assume all enrolled families will complete the follow-up call 
to confirm data collection packet receipt (approximately 10 minutes) 
and will review the materials in the data collection packet. Finally, 
we estimate that 90% of enrolled parents/caregivers will complete two 
self-administered questionnaires (SEED Teen Health and Development 
Survey and the Social Responsiveness Scale) and two supplemental 
consent forms. The two questionnaires will take approximately 60 
minutes to complete, plus an additional 5 minutes to read and sign the 
informed consent. Therefore, we estimate the total burden hours are 
303.
    There are no costs to participants other than their time.
