Interventions
Step 1 - Screening ; Step 2 - Clinical interview
Step 1: screening is performed by online parental questionnaires (SRS-2, Identidys scale, DCDQ, parental concerns questionnaire ) via a web platform. Parents and registered doctors will be informed by mail in case of negative screening; In case of positive screening, they will be called by phone in order to give them the results and to invite them for a clinical and semi-structured interview. Step 2: The semi-structured interview will be performed by a psychologist specialized in NDD in order to clinically confirm the results of the screening and refer the child to care and interventions, by mail to the registered doctor. Around 12 months after this interview, parents will be called by phone to collect a description of the referral and their satisfaction about the screening process.
