Abstract
In this paper, we describe how secondary data analyses of large population-representative surveys can be used to refine methodological designs on the prevalence of behavior problems and maternal mental health problems in families with a child with an autism spectrum disorder. We also suggest that prospective repeated measures usually available in cohort studies are extremely useful for understanding complex inter-relationships between the broader autism phenotype and parental variables, in a way that is more relevant to the entire autism spectrum disorder population and not just those families with the highest levels of difficulties.
