Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI)

A measurement tool published in 1983 that is designed to test if a person naturally shows empathy.  The test contains four items with seven parts to each, measuring each individual facet of empathy.  The four facets are perspective taking, empathic concern, personal distress, and the fantasy scale.  Testing these four areas shows how good a persons empathetic response is.

Land acknowledgement

Embrace Autism recognizes and acknowledges the traditional lands of the Indigenous peoples across Ontario. From the lands of the Anishinaabe to the Attawandaron and Haudenosaunee, these lands surrounding the Great Lakes are steeped in First Nations history.

We are in solidarity with Indigenous brothers and sisters to honour and respect Mother Earth. We acknowledge and give gratitude for the wisdom of the Grandfathers and the four winds that carry the spirits of our ancestors that walked this land before us.

Embrace Autism is located on the Treaty Lands and Territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit. We acknowledge and thank the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation—the Treaty holders—for being stewards of this traditional territory.
