Information:
The Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule - Second Edition (ADOS-2) is a semi-structured, standardized assessment of social-communication, play and imaginative use of materials, and restricted and repetitive behaviors for individuals who have been referred because of possible autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The ADOS-2 contains 5 assessment modules. Each module offers standard activities designed to elicit behaviors that are directly relevant to the diagnosis of ASD at different developmental levels and chronological ages from 12 months to adult. It is essential that examiners using the ADOS-2 have a full understanding of the guidelines for selecting the appropriate module and the guidelines for administration of the activities in all 5 modules. Donuts and Discussion Group #2 will focus on supporting examiners who use the ADOS-2 gain a better understanding of the specific behaviors that are scored in each module, the principles underlying each code, and the coding conventions.
