Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule

The ADOS-2 (Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule–Second Edition) assesses social and communication skills. Additionally, it measures the imaginative use of materials by the individual taking the test. As of now, the ADOS-2 is the “gold standard” in testing for autism.

The ADOS-2 is designed for individuals as young as 12-months of age all the way through adulthood.

The ADOS-2 can accommodate people across the lifespan because it comprises several modules. Clinicians select the appropriate module for an individual based upon the person’s language ability (ranging from no speech to verbally fluent) and age.
