Brief summary (registry, in English)
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of using a Microskills video training library for young adults, aged 18-28, with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) to enhance their skills in developing and maintaining healthy relationships. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does using SkillTalk increase autistic young adults skills in the communications skills that are demonstrated in the video curriculum (skills: resolve conflict, compromise, give feedback)? * Does using SkillTalk increase reported confidence and satisfaction in communication and relationship skills? * Does using SkillTalk increase interpersonal competence? * Does using SkillTalk increase ability to cope with rejection? * Does using SkillTalk improve mental health and wellbeing? Participants will be asked to: * Take a survey at the beginning of the study, after one month the end of the study, and at 3-month follow up * Participate in recorded video calls with projects staff, comprised of 2-3 brief roleplay scenarios of relationship skills at the beginning of the study, after one month the end of the study, and at 3-month follow up * Watch a minimum of 85% of the 60 minutes of video assigned
