Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Risk Factors in Children

This dataset, ASD_risks_tbl_df, is a tibble containing information on various clinical, behavioral, genetic, and developmental factors associated with the risk of developing Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) traits in children. The dataset consists of 1,985 observations and 28 variables, including the Autism Spectrum Quotient items (A1–A10), Social Responsiveness Scale, Qchat-10 score, Childhood Autism Rating Scale, and multiple indicators related to speech, learning, genetics, mental health, developmental delays, behavioral issues, demographics, and family history. The final column indicates whether the child is expected to develop ASD traits in the future (0 or 1).
