What's New in ASQ:SE-2
ASQ:SE-2 questionnaires are better than ever, with helpful new features like:

• New 2 month questionnaire: Reliably screen and start monitoring children as young as 1 month, so critical interventions can start earlier.
• Screen through kindergarten: Now you can screen children from 1–72 months with no gaps, so you can use ASQ:SE-2 through kindergarten and the transition to school.
• New behavior and communication items designed to elicit parent concerns that may point to autism and early communication issues.
• New data and cutoffs: ASQ:SE-2 is based on updated research and a large sample size of more than 14,000 diverse children.
• New monitoring zone that clearly identifies children who are close to the cutoff and should be monitored and rescreened.
• Questionnaire items revised and refined based on user feedback, to help parents provide the best responses.
• Sturdy, convenient new box with a handle for easy portability.

The Starter Kit is part of the ASQ:SE-2 screening system. ASQ:SE-2 is the bestselling screener trusted to uncover possible social-emotional issues as early as possible during the crucial first 6 years of life. The 9 age-appropriate ASQ:SE-2 questionnaires effectively screen 7 key developmental areas: self-regulation, compliance, adaptive functioning, autonomy, affect, social-communication, and interaction with people.

After graduating from Sogang University in Seoul, Korea, in 1985, she received her master's degree in 1992 and her doctorate in 1996 from the University of Oregon in the area of early intervention/early childhood special education. Her special research interests include alternative assessment for young children with special needs, family collaboration in early intervention, young children with emotional and social challenges, whole child development, and holistic education, as well as multicultural education for individuals with diverse backgrounds.

Dr. Squires is Professor of Special Education, focusing on the field of early intervention/early childhood special education.
