What is the aim of this experimental endeavor?

"The principal goal of this research, evaluated over the course of twelve months, is to assess Fidelity. In order to evaluate parent engagement and autism symptoms, internal implementation forms and Repetitive Behavior Scales (RBS) will be used respectively. Lastly, in order to measure potential signs of ASD in infants aged 6-18 months old The Autism Observation Scale for Infants (AOSI) will be employed with a score ranging from 0-38 indicating symptomatology associated with an ASD."
