The components of assessment

After scheduling your autism test Singapore, it is normal to feel some uneasiness, especially if this is your first evaluation. Many families and individuals worry about the process, but our role is to make it as supportive and transparent as possible. Every autism assessment is carried out with compassion, professionalism, and respect for the individual’s pace and comfort level.

Administration of an Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS-2) Module (1h) - in person

The ADOS-2 is an Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, which is one of several standardized assessment tools used by professionals to evaluate autism spectrum disorder (ASD). A set of standardised activities and questions are designed to give the clinician opportunities to observe behaviours that are directly relevant to the diagnosis of ASD. The module also assesses play skills as part of the observation, alongside communication and social interaction. The ADOS-2 incorporates the use of planned social activities catered for different developmental levels and chronological ages to create situations in which social interactions, communication and particular types of behaviours are likely to appear.

ADI-R (1.5 – 2.5h) - in person

The Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R) is a key assessment tool used in the diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder. This semi-structured diagnostic interview with parents or caregivers evaluates a child's skills, including language developmental milestones, communication abilities, reciprocal social interactions, stereotyped and repetitive behaviours and interests, and the presence of developmental abnormalities evident at or before 36 months. The ADI-R provides a comprehensive developmental history to support accurate diagnosis and intervention planning.

Social Responsiveness Scale - remote

A questionnaire that reliably measures the extent of social impairment and distinguishes ASD from other conditions, the Social Responsiveness Scale is one of several assessment tools used by professionals. As part of several assessment tools, it specifically evaluates social skills and social impairment in children with ASD, helping to guide diagnosis and intervention strategies.

Social Communication Questionnaire - remote

A brief assessment tool completed by a parent/adult or other primary caregivers that helps to screen for ASD by evaluating both verbal and non verbal communication, as well as the child's communication abilities and overall social functioning in individuals.
