Clinical measurement of language proficiency is cumbersome and costly; however, Automated Language Measures (ALMs) can be automatically calculated from language samples. Objectives: 1. examine language differences between three clinical groups (ASD, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and Typically Developing (TD)); 2. analyze the convergent validity of these measures by calculating correlations between the ALMs and standardized language measures; 3. investigate the accuracy of each individual ALM in predicting ASD status; and 4. investigate any gains in accuracy obtained by combining all ALMs together to predict ASD status. 000009229 540__ $$fCC BY 000009229 542__ $$fIn copyright - joint owners 000009229 650__ $$aNatural Language Processing$$022716 000009229 650__ $$aAutistic Disorder$$015231 000009229 650__ $$aLanguage$$021309 000009229 6531_ $$aautism 000009229 6531_ $$aautomated language measures 000009229 6531_ $$aexpressive language sampling 000009229 6531_ $$aneurodivergent 000009229 6531_ $$adisfluency 000009229 7001_ $$aMacFarlane, Heather$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000009229 7001_ $$aSalem, Alexandra C.$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000009229 7001_ $$aAdams, Joel R.$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000009229 7001_ $$aLawley, Grace O.$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000009229 7001_ $$aBedrick, Steven$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000009229 7001_ $$aDolata, Jill K.$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000009229 7001_ $$aFombonne, Eric$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000009229 711__ $$aResearch Week$$uOregon Health and Science University$$d2021 000009229 8564_ $$9cfafe499-8a92-4e1c-b8f1-129f25505978$$s63588$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/9229/files/MacFarlane-Heather-OHSU-ResearchWeek-2021.pdf 000009229 905__ $$a/rest/prod/0v/83/81/27/0v838127z 000009229 980__ $$aResearch Week
