A review of hospital records was conducted for children evaluated for autism spectrum disorders who completed both the Leiter International Performance Scale-Revised (Leiter-R) and Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scales, 5th Edition (SB5). Participants were between 3 and 12 years of age. Diagnoses were autistic disorder (n = 26, 55%) and pervasive developmental disorder-not otherwise specified (n = 21, 45%). Analysis showed that the full sample received significantly higher scores on the Leiter-R than SB5 (mean discrepancy of 20.91 points), specific diagnosis was not a significant factor, and younger children had a larger discrepancy between tests. These analyses strongly suggest that the Leiter-R and the SB5 may not be equivalent measures of intellectual functioning in children with autism spectrum disorders, and that use of one or the other exclusively could lead to misclassification of intellectual capacity.
对同时完成 Leiter 国际绩效量表修订版（Leiter-R）和斯坦福-比奈智力量表第五版（SB5）评估的自闭症谱系障碍儿童的医院记录进行了回顾。参与者的年龄在 3 至 12 岁之间。诊断为自闭症障碍（n = 26，55%）和广泛性发育障碍未特定（n = 21，45%）。分析表明，完整样本在 Leiter-R 上的得分明显高于 SB5（平均差异为 20.91 分），特定诊断不是一个重要因素，年龄较小的儿童在测试之间的差异更大。这些分析强烈表明， Leiter-R 和 SB5 可能不是自闭症谱系障碍儿童智力功能的等效测量工具，单独使用其中一种可能导致智力能力的错误分类。
