Parents were asked to report on all services that were used historically during the preschool period. FORWARD is a data set of clinician and parent-report information from specialty clinics in the FXCRC. χ2 tests for association were used to obtain P values for differences in proportions between case groups for use of services.
a
Adjusted for age (in years) at clinic visit; odds ratio, the odds of using a service given ASD+FXS status.
b
Significant P value (a level of .05 was considered statistically significant).
