ADI-R and ADOS Training

Autism Diagnostic Interview–Revised (ADI-R) Training

The ADI-R is a standardised, semi-structured diagnostic interview for use with the parents or caregivers of people with autism or other Pervasive Developmental Disorders.  The interview focuses upon three main areas (i) quality of reciprocal social interaction, (ii) communication and language, and (iii) repetitive, restricted and stereotyped patterns of behaviour. It produces an algorithm which is linked to ICD-10 and DSM-IV diagnostic criteria.

Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) training

The Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) is a semi-structured, standardised assessment of communication, social interaction, and play.  It provides a series of standardised contexts in which the child’s social, communication and repetitive, stereotyped behaviours can be observed.  It has been designed to assist in the diagnosis of autism and pervasive developmental disorders and is suggested as a complementary instrument to the ADI-R.  Standardised toys and activities are used to present opportunities for social and communicative interaction with the examiner.  During these activities, observation of the child notes the absence of presence of behaviours of interest. A diagnostic algorithm consistent with DSM-IV and ICD-10 clinical diagnoses is generated.
