The content validation showed satisfactory CVR values, ensuring the validity of the developed application, with suggestions for revisions regarding aims and structure. The usability evaluation yielded an overall average score of 50.9 points, classified as a high level of usability.
Conclusion:
The results demonstrated that the App-Autismo has adequate evidence of content validity and usability. By incorporating the experts' suggestions, this tool can be tested in future research for its effectiveness and efficiency.
