How was ASQ normed and validated in Native America populations? Do you have any data, publications, or other resources you can share?

Native American children were included in the research samples for both ASQ-3 and ASQ:SE-2. 1.1% of the sample for ASQ-3 was categorized as Native American/Alaskan (see chart on page 163 of the ASQ-3 User’s Guide) and 0.8% of the sample for ASQ:SE-2 was categorized as Native American (see page 189 of the ASQ:SE-2 User’s Guide).

Research articles on use with Native American populations have not been published. However, there have been several studies published on use with native populations in Canada and Australia. Listed below are several citations:
