The Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers (M-CHAT) is a screening tool designed to detect autism spectrum disorders at an early age. This scale is used to assess autistic symptoms in children and guide parents, caregivers, or healthcare professionals in recognizing potential signs in the child's development. M-CHAT is specifically designed to assess children aged 16-30 months.
M-CHAT consists of a series of questions that evaluate various social and communication skills. Parents or caregivers provide the most appropriate answers for their children. For children showing signs of autistic symptoms, this scale plays a guiding role in early intervention and support planning. However, M-CHAT is only a screening tool and does not replace a comprehensive assessment used to diagnose autism spectrum disorder.
