ados manual pdfWith updated protocols, revised algorithms, a new Comparison Score, and a Toddler Module, the ADOS-2 provides a highly accurate picture of current symptoms, unaffected by language. It can be used to evaluate almost anyone suspected of having ASD—from 1-year-olds with no speech to adults who are verbally fluent. By observing and coding these behaviors, you can obtain information that informs diagnosis, intervention, treatment planning, and educational placement. The individual being evaluated is given only one module, selected on the basis of his or her expressive language level and chronological age. As you administer activities, you observe the examinee and take notes. Immediately afterward, you code the behaviors observed. Then you use the algorithm form for scoring. The difference between autism and autism spectrum classifications is one of severity, with the former indicating more pronounced symptoms. In the Toddler Module, algorithms yield “ranges of concern” rather than classification scores. Modules 1 through 4 retain the same basic activities and codes, though some codes have been expanded and several new codes have been added. Protocol Booklets for these modules have been significantly improved—they now provide clearer, more explicit administration and coding instructions. Observations are coded immediately following administration, and the codes are converted to algorithm scores. Toddler Module algorithms provide “ranges of concern” rather than cutoff scores. These ranges help you form clinical impressions, but they avoid formal classification—which may not be appropriate at such a young age. The Toddler Module quantifies risk for ASD and provides guidance if continued monitoring is needed. It gives you a highly accurate picture of current ASD-related symptoms, based on real-time observations.http://elemonbg.com/Files/diablo-2-manual-patch-1_13c.xml

Because it can be used with a wide range of children and adults, the ADOS-2 is an essential addition to any hospital, clinic, or school that serves individuals with developmental disorders. However, timely detection is complicated by the absence of a biological test, insufficient specificity of screening instruments as well as low awareness among parents and professionals about characteristics of early age behavior and communication. The article presents a new module of the ADOS-2, a widely-used observation schedule for people presumed to have an autism spectrum disorder. This module is designed for use with children of 12 to 30 months of age.J Autism Dev Disord (2004) 34: 691. Modules 1 through 4 provide cutoff scores for autism and autism spectrum classifications. Modules 1 through 3 also provide a Comparison Score indicating level of autism spectrum-related symptoms compared to children with ASD who are the same age and have similar language skills.

Because it can be used with a wide range of children and adults, the ADOS-2 is an essential addition to any hospital, clinic, or school that serves individuals with developmental disorders. Therefore, valid assessment requires training. Three training options are available: The case examples for Modules 1 through 4 are identical to those in the ADOS DVD training package (since these modules retain basic ADOS activities). The case examples for the Toddler Module are new. It includes: If you own videos for Modules 1 through 4 other than the ones from the ADOS DVD Training Package, for example, videos that you may have received by attending an ADOS workshop, those videos are not compatible with the training upgrade package. For five-module DVD training without access to the original ADOS training videos (W-365DVD), you will need to purchase W-605DVD.http://charlottemarquardt.com/images/collins-complete-diy-manual-online.pdf If you have ADOS training videos but you are unsure whether they will be compatible with the training upgrade package, please contact WPS for clarification. Cases range from a toddler exhibiting delays in physical development and social communication to an adult experiencing academic and social difficulties in college. Below is an excerpt from the case example for Module 2. Harry and his family were recruited to participate in a genetics study of ASD. As part of the study protocol, Harry’s family participated in a research evaluation to confirm Harry’s diagnosis of ASD. Harry’s parents completed a parent interview and a number of questionnaires.He was observed to use primarily phrase speech. Although Harry often used sentences that included several words, such as “Where are you going, Daddy?” or “I don’t want to go to school,” he did not use complex sentences that included multiple clauses (e.g., “I don’t want to go to school tomorrow because I am too tired”). Module 2 was selected as the appropriate module on the basis of Harry’s expressive language level. A description of Harry’s social and communicative behavior during the ADOS-2 is provided in the excerpt from his evaluation report, presented next. The ADOS-2 is a semi-structured, standardized assessment instrument that includes a number of play-based activities designed to obtain informationin the areas of communication, reciprocal social interactions, and restricted and repetitive behaviors associated with a diagnosis of ASD. Module 2 of the ADOS-2 is designed for children with phrase speech whose speech is not yet “fluent” (that is, who are not yet consistently combining two relatively complex ideas together in sentences to talk about objects or events that are not present). Module 2 includes activities such as a construction task, interactive play with a family of dolls, a demonstration task, looking at a book and pictures, a pretend birthday party, bubbles, and a snack. He immediately began exploring the various toys that were set out for him. Harry’s language during the ADOS-2 consisted primarily of short phrases. He said things like, “It’s a cat,” as he was pointing to a picture of a cat on the music box, and “I like more,” and “I like two,” when he was requesting things. Harry sometimes echoed things that other people said, such as “Ooh, nice!” or “Alright.” At times, it was quite easy to understand what Harry was saying, but at other times his articulation made it difficult to understand him. He also occasionally mixed up his pronouns, such as saying, “You do it,” to mean that he wanted to do it. Harry had difficulty participating in conversational exchanges with the examiner. Although he was able to answer simple questions about familiar topics (e.g., How old are you? Do you have any pets?), he did not elaborate on his brief answers or ask questions of the examiner when provided opportunities to do so. This made it difficult to build a conversation with Harry. At other times, he did not use eye contact when talking to people or interacting with them. Harry used a few gestures, such as pretending to brush his teeth when asked to teach this activity to the examiner and blowing a kiss to a baby doll when his mother prompted him to do so. He did not spontaneously use gestures at other times when communicating with the examiner or his mother. He made a variety of overtures to ask for things and occasionally to express interest or draw attention to something that he was enjoying. Harry had a tendency to be repetitive when initiating interactions with other people, however, such as by saying the same phrase in the same way (e.g., saying “You do it, mommy?” with an exaggerated sing-song intonation to ask for permission). Harry also exhibited a strong interest in University of Michigan football, and he insisted on bringing up things about the football team, even when it was clear that the examiner was trying to change the subject. At one point, Harry became very interested in putting small objects into a teapot, then dumping them out and starting over again. When the examiner tried to join Harry and put something into the teapot, he stomped and yelled, “No!” and took it out. On another occasion, Harry spent several minutes putting blocks into a box repetitively. He became quite distressed and frustrated when the examiner tried to interrupt him; he flapped his hands while protesting loudly. He also rocked the baby doll in a blanket and hugged her as he pretended to put her to bed. Harry had more difficulty playing creatively with the family of dolls. He became so engrossed in playing repetitively with the teapot and the small objects that the repetitive play may have prevented him from using the objects in a more imaginative way. For the genetics research project protocol, diagnostic classification of the participants was based on the results of the ADI-R, the ADOS-2, and the clinical impression of the principal investigator (a developmental pediatrician experienced in ASD assessment and diagnosis). Harry’s scores on the ADI-R met cutoffs for autism as well. The senior research clinician reviewed Harry’s charts (including the results of cognitive testing), read the results of the ADI-R, watched a video of the ADOS-2 Module 2 administration, and met with the clinicians who conducted the parent interview and child assessment. On the basis of all of the available information, the clinician gave Harry an overall diagnosis of autism and assigned him to the ASD (as opposed to the non-ASD) diagnostic group in the genetics research project. Behavioral observations from the ADOS-2 were used to identify specific intervention targets for Harry’s speech therapy program, such as responding to others’ comments to improve conversational skills. The ADOS-2 was also important in highlighting that Harry’s interests were quite restricted, leading to the goal of increasing his variety of play behaviors.

The observational schedule consists of four 30-minute modules, each designed to be administered to different individuals according to their level of expressive language. Psychometric data are presented for 223 children and adults with Autistic Disorder (autism), Pervasive Developmental Disorder Not Otherwise Specified (PDDNOS) or nonspectrum diagnoses. Within each module, diagnostic groups were equivalent on expressive language level. Results indicate substantial interrater and test—retest reliability for individual items, excellent interrater reliability within domains and excellent internal consistency. Comparisons of means indicated consistent differentiation of autism and PDDNOS from nonspectrum individuals, with some, but less consistent, differentiation of autism from PDDNOS. Algorithm sensitivities and specificities for autism and PDDNOS relative to nonspectrum disorders were excellent, with moderate differentiation of autism from PDDNOS.

In light of changes in DSM-5 ASD diagnostic criteria, a single cut-off score that yields a good combination of sensitivity and specificity is provided to differentiate between ASD and Non-ASD classifications. This contrasts to other modules, which have separate cut-offs available for Autism and ASD. For researchers who may be interested in achieving a higher level of specificity, at the cost of somewhat lower sensitivity (i.e., equivalent to an ADOS-2 classification of “Autism” only on other modules), a cut-off of 10 may be useful. This cut-off yields an overall specificity of 91.1, but there is also a sizeable reduction in sensitivity (79.3 overall; 71.3 for individuals with above average IQs; data not shown, additional information available from authors upon request). It is also noteworthy that, although DSM-5 criteria now require that an individual exhibit deficits in both social-communication and restricted and repetitive behaviors, separate domain cut-offs are not provided on the ADOS algorithm. As noted above, the time-limited, standardized nature of the ADOS may influence the extent to which some individuals exhibit RRBs during the assessment. Thus, it is likely that implementing a separate RRB-domain cut-off would reduce sensitivity of the instrument (i.e., some individuals with ASD will exhibit few or no RRBs during the 40 minute observation period). While the ADOS is not designed for use in isolation as a DSM “checklist” to determine a clinical diagnosis of ASD, it provides highly valid instrument classifications and a useful context in which to observe behaviors relevant to clinical diagnosis. The new Module 4 algorithm totals were weakly, but significantly correlated with age. In the cross-sectional design of this study, it is not clear if these differences are due to recruitment effects or if they reflect true developmental variation. The new algorithm totals were not significantly correlated with IQ. However, correlations between previous algorithm totals and IQ suggested a need to examine performance across different levels of cognitive ability. As such, it did not seem practical to make separate algorithms for individuals of different cognitive levels, all of whom had fluent, complex language. Because the Non-ASD samples within IQ ranges are relatively small, it is difficult to know exactly what this means. This finding also highlights the fact that, as with all of the ASD diagnostic instruments, the ADOS is best used as one measure of behavior in combination with other sources of information. Overlap of the Non-ASD group with the Autism and Other-ASD groups may reflect recruitment bias (i.e., some of our Non-ASD sample had been referred for assessment of ASD, but received a clinical Non-ASD diagnosis). However, this also reflects the intention of the calibrated score to provide a continuous, quantitative dimensional measures of social-communication and repetitive behaviors extending beyond diagnostic categorization, consistent with the collapsing of diagnostic categories in DSM-5. It is hoped that the newly revised Module 4 algorithm and CSS will help to expand research efforts to better understand the specific strengths and difficulties in social-communication and repetitive behaviors experienced by adults with ASD. Thus, the CSS allows examination of longitudinal trajectories of ASD symptoms across childhood and into young adulthood. Module 4 scores can also be used to further our understanding of how ASD symptom severity interacts with other factors, such as verbal, cognitive and adaptive ability to predict functional outcomes for adults with ASD. Moreover, the Module 4 CSS may be a useful phenotyping measure for neurobiological studies seeking to draw associations between dimensions of ASD and differences in brain structure or function. Clinically, the Module 4 revisions yield scores that provide a more accurate summary of ASD symptoms, with an algorithm that is more closely aligned with DSM-5 criteria than the original algorithm. It also affords good sensitivity and improved specificity compared to the original Module 4 algorithm. Although it is always recommended that the ADOS be used as one source of information in a diagnostic battery, good specificity is particularly important in the assessment of adults, for whom parents are not always available to provide the comprehensive developmental history that is often helpful in making differential diagnoses. Finally, clinicians may use the Module 4 CSS to monitor symptom severity (relative to age and language level) during the course of treatment. However, it is important to remember that the ADOS’ primary use is as a diagnostic instrument and the CSS is intended to capture severity of core symptoms that may not be expected to remit in the same way symptoms of depression or anxiety are reduced in response to treatment. Moreover, because the CSS is not intended as a measure of functional impairment, it may not be as sensitive to more subtle changes as measures of adaptive social functioning. Thus, while a significant reduction in scores over time may be viewed as evidence of improvement, stability of scores should not be viewed as discouraging. Notably, confidence intervals (shown in Table 4 ) should be taken into account when assessing the clinical significance of a change in score. Limitations Sensitivity and specificity of the algorithm may vary in different clinical and research settings as a consequence of differences in examiner skill, sequence of administration and other factors ( Gotham et al. 2007 ). While the Non-ASD group is the largest to-date used in the validation of the ADOS, it is a diagnostically diverse group. Future studies examining the diagnostic utility of the ADOS in more specific comparison samples (e.g., individuals with mood disorders) would be useful to inform understanding of the behavioral patterns observed in other groups and the Module 4’s ability to differentiate between ASD and Non-ASD diagnoses. Results of a recent study examining the validity of the ADOS in a sample of adults suggest that our revisions to the Module 4 algorithm will increase discriminative validity in difficult to differentiate psychiatric groups (Bastiaansen et al., 2011). This study demonstrated good overall specificity of the original Module 4 algorithm (.82) in adults with Psychopathy, Schizophrenia or typical development. Domain totals discriminated between the ASD vs.This was thought to be due to the overlap in negative symptoms observed in both ASD and Schizophrenia (e.g., limited range of directed facial expressions and lack of asking the examiner for information). Application of the revised Module 3 algorithm ( Gotham et al., 2007 ) differentiated between the ASD and each of the three groups, including the Schizophrenia group. Examination of individual items suggested that only three of the 22 Module 4 items distinguished the ASD from the Schizophrenia group: Stereotyped Language, Quality of Social Response and Overall Quality of Rapport. All three of these items are included in the revised Module 4 algorithm, in addition to seven items found to differentiate ASD from the psychopathy and typically developing groups. Given that our changes to the Module 4 algorithm have increased comparability to the revised Module 3 algorithm and that the new Module 4 algorithm comprises many items shown to differentiate groups in Bastiaansen’s study, we would expect that the revised Module 4 algorithm will better differentiate between ASD and these Non-ASD groups than the original algorithm. Examination of Module 4 performance with these and other diagnostic groups will be an important future direction for validating the revised Module 4 algorithm.
