The National Institute for Psychobiology in Israel (NIPI). (2021-2023)"Exploring the use of dual language assessment for bilingual children with ASD: Implications for diagnosis and treatment." PIs: Prof. Natalia Meir and Prof. Rama Novogrodsky)

The project (2021-2023) investigated language and ASD assessment in bilingual children with ASD using a dual-language approach, combining direct tools and indirect measures like questionnaires. It focused on Russian-Hebrew and English-Hebrew bilinguals, comparing their performance across their two languages and to monolingual Hebrew-speaking peers with ASD. The study aimed to explore discrepancies in language performance, links between ADOS scores and language skills, and differences between bilingual and monolingual children with ASD.
