ADOS-2 For English-Spanish Bilingual Populations
Project Description:
Continue with Spanish ADOS validation study where we are conducting autism assessments in both Spanish and English at participants' homes and in the community. Participants include individuals across the lifespan and across the broad spectrum in terms of language ability (minimally verbal to verbally fluent), cognitive ability (intellectual disability to superior-level IQ), autism symptomatology, adaptive functioning, support needs, educational achievements, and others. Reports are provided to allow participants to receive appropriate services. Have completed free evaluations in English and Spanish for 100 individuals with ASD or suspected ASD in their homes, community centers, or at UCLA.
Provide assessment and intervention services to individuals across the lifespan and across the broad spectrum in terms of language ability (minimally verbal to verbally fluent), cognitive ability (intellectual disability to superior-level IQ), autism symptomatology, adaptive functioning, support needs, educational achievements, and others.
