The ASK-Q was developed to have cross-cultural utility and initial data reveals strong psychometric properties for the measure (Harrison, Bradshaw, et al., 2017). The current study aims to confirm several important measurement aspects of the ASK-Q. Methods To assess the cross-cultural internal consistency of the ASK-Q, data was collected from parents of children with ASD in Mongolia (n?=?40). Test-retest reliability analyses among a group of college students (n = 110) examined the stability of responses on the ASK-Q. To examine the sensitivity of the ASK-Q to detect change, we examined differences in ASD knowledge from the beginning to the end of the semester for college students (n?=?27) enrolled in a brief weekly ASD seminar. Results Analyses revealed adequate ASK-Q internal consistency in the Mongolian context with an alpha of 0.721. Test-retest data revealed good reliability for the ASK-Q overall (ICC?=?0.86) over a two-week period, and the measure served as a useful tool for detecting change pre- and post-intervention. Discussion The adequate internal consistency result from the Mongolian context supports the ASK-Q development goal of creating a measure with cross-cultural utility. The additional psychometric data collected in this study reinforce the assertion that the ASK-Q would serve as a reliable tool and a sensitive tool for examining the efficacy of ASD knowledge interventions.
