OverviewAI-generated summary

Emily Shah's research focuses on autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and related family dynamics, with an emphasis on caregiver experiences and intervention development. Her work investigates the relationship between caregiver adverse childhood experiences and the age of ASD diagnosis, as well as predictors of caregiver satisfaction with hybrid care models for ASD evaluations. Shah also studies caregiver mental health as a predictor for the age of ASD evaluation. Her publications examine topics such as parental autonomy-restricting behaviors during adolescence and their impact on emerging adulthood dependency, and the role of close friendships in adolescent wellbeing. She has collaborated with researchers including Michele Kilmer, Minju Hong, and Lauren B. Quetsch at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville on multiple publications.
