Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS). The Gold Standard for Autism Assessment.
Created in 2001, and widely used in research and academic centers, ADOS allows FACT to provide clients with an accurate assessment and diagnosis of autism and pervasive development disorder across all ages (toddlers to adults), developmental levels and language skills.
If Autism is Suspected, ADOS is the Right Evaluation Tool
ADOS is a semi-structured assessment that can be used to evaluate anyone suspected of having autism; from children with no speech to adults who are verbally fluent.
The goal of the ADOS is to provide standardized information concerning the diagnosis of autism in the areas of social behavior, use of vocalizations/speech and gesture in social situations, play and interests.
Structured activities and materials provide standard contexts in which social interactions, communication, and other behaviors relevant to autistic spectrum disorders are observed.
