Quizplus · Accepted Answer

While the relationship of the parents is important for the child's overall well-being, it is not directly relevant to the assessment of ASD. The other options listed (hearing, oral-motor skills and speech production, communication functions, and observation of the child's abilities) are all important components of an ASD assessment.
