The classification agreement of the Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R) and the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) was examined in 129 children and adolescents (aged 7-18 years) who were evaluated for autism. Participants received a diagnosis of autism or non-autism based on the ADI-R. Linear discriminant analysis revealed adequate concordance between the ADI-R and ADOS, with 75% of the participants being correctly classified using the ADOS. Classification accuracy significantly improved to 84% when a measure of adaptive functioning (i.e., the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales) was included in the analysis. The findings suggest that when clinicians obtain discrepant information on the ADI-R and ADOS, assessment of an individual's adaptive functioning may reduce diagnostic errors.
对129名接受自闭症评估的儿童和青少年(7至18岁)进行了《自闭症诊断访谈修订版》(ADI-R)和《自闭症诊断观察量表》(ADOS)的分类一致性检查。参与者根据ADI-R被诊断为自闭症或非自闭症。线性判别分析显示ADI-R和ADOS之间有足够的一致性,75%的参与者通过ADOS被正确分类。当分析中纳入一项适应性功能测量指标(即《温兰德适应行为量表》)时,分类准确率显著提高到84%。研究结果表明,当临床医生在ADI-R和ADOS上获得不一致的信息时,对个体适应性功能的评估可能会减少诊断错误。
