ADOS-2
A semistructured, standardized assessment of communication, social interaction, play, and restricted and repetitive behaviors
The ADOS-2 provides a highly accurate picture of current ASD symptoms, unaffected by language. It can be used to evaluate almost anyone suspected of having ASD - from 1-year-olds with no speech to adults who are verbally fluent - making it an essential addition to any hospital, clinic, or school that serves individuals with developmental disorders.
