The ADOS-2 is the standard instrument for assessing autism spectrum disorders (ASD) across age, developmental level, and language skills. The course provides a necessary step in training for people who plan to use the ADOS-2 in research. It is also appropriate for clinicians who wish to achieve reliability with others using the measure. This advanced level workshop involves intensive instruction on the psychometrics of the instrument, working in small groups on administering and scoring the ADOS, and discussion and question/answer about specific administration and coding issues. Participants will receive coaching of their own administration as well as additional practice with scoring. Following the course, participants must demonstrate understanding of correct administration and coding. This is achieved through scoring of additional videos that will be provided to you and through submitting two post-course video recordings of yourself administering different ADOS modules and respective scored protocols within three months of your training.


Objectives
At the conclusion of this educational activity, participants should be able to:

  1. Select the appropriate module of the ADOS-2 for their patients/research participants with ASD
  2. Appropriately administer each of the five modules of the ADOS-2 (Day one covers the toddler module, Day two covers Modules 1-2, Day three covers Modules 3-4)
  3. Demonstrate understanding of ADOS-2 coding conventions
  4. Calculate all ADOS-2 algorithm scores, including risk ranges, clinical classifications, and calibrated severity score
  5. Describe the two remaining steps to achieving "research reliability"
