About the Study
The Southwest Autism Research & Resource Center (SARRC) is looking for families living in St. Louis, Missouri, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, or Miami, Florida, to volunteer in our research study that is evaluating how inclusive and engaging museums are for children and adolescents with ASD.
Families will be asked to make two separate visits to the same museum, three to six months apart and evaluate their family’s experience.

- Must reside in St. Louis, Oklahoma City or Miami
- Must be available for two museum visits and willing to complete pre- and post-visit surveys and interviews
Families participating in the study will complete the following:
- Remote intake visit via videoconference, including a brief IQ test with the child
- Two visits to a museum selected by SARRC*
- Pre-visit surveys are conducted before each museum visit
- Post-visit online surveys and videoconference interviews following each museum visit
