My girlfriend is currently writing a report on the effectiveness of animal assisted therapies and interventions and she needs some opinions on it. From both Autistic people and the parents of Autistic children. She's created some short questionnaires, I've included the links in this post.

By Autistic I mean the current definition of Autism as a spectrum so people on any part of the spectrum can fill in the questionnaire as long as they've been officially diagnosed with either of the following conditions:
  • Autism Spectrum Disorder
  • Autism
  • Aspergers
  • PDD-NOS

I've included the links for both the Questionnaire that can be found below:

Questionnaire for adults with ASD to fill out:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/14zcAAVLo8J2W5c9fRbeEe9eM1XvCjGm6XVd2O_UaLEI/viewform
Questionaire for parents of an ASD child to fill out:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/18ZnCqCNaZ_Q0H1-9Q7tbH0JyC-i9Nven5sU1-I7AAgs/viewform?c=0&w=1

Please note I decided to post this on here as RailUK seems to have a sizeable community of Autistic people and my girlfriend needed as wide a range an audience as possible.
If you have any issues with the Questionnaires, please post below and I'll do my best to help.

Thanks in advance for any help.

As an adult with Autistic Spectrum Disorder, I'll fill this in for you tomorrow. It might be worth you or your girlfriend checking out Wrong Planet, the autism forum.

I think she has put the forum up on a variety of ASD Facebook groups and forums.

We've had some great responses, so cheers to all those involved.

My girlfriend does require a few more responses, so it would be much appreciated if others could fill the forms in.

For anyone under 18 who wishes to fill in the form, my girlfriend informs you could fill in the parents questionnaire but write in the 'any further information' box, just state that they filled out the form themselves.
