The present study aims at examining whether the 'Social Skills Performance Assessment' (SSPA; Patterson et al. in Schizophr Res 48(2-3):351-360, 2001) is a suitable performance-based measure to assess social skills in adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). For this purpose, social skills of individuals with ASD and non-ASD participants were assessed through the SSPA role plays. Results of this study suggest that the SSPA is suitable for the assessment of social skills in adults with ASD. The SSPA discriminates between individuals with ASD and non-ASD individuals, with the ASD group scoring significantly lower. Although no evidence was found for convergent validity of the SSPA in participants with ASD, divergent validity of the SSPA and interrater reliability among adults with ASD were good.
本研究旨在考察《社会技能表现评估》（SSPA；Patterson 等人，《精神分裂症研究》，第 48 卷（2-3）：351-360，2001）是否适合评估自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）成人的社交技能。为此，通过 SSPA 角色扮演评估了 ASD 患者和非 ASD 参与者的社交技能。这项研究的结果表明，SSPA 适合评估 ASD 成人的社交技能。SSPA 能够区分 ASD 患者和非 ASD 个体，ASD 组得分明显较低。尽管在 ASD 患者中没有发现 SSPA 的会聚有效性的证据，但 SSPA 的区别有效性和 ASD 成人之间的评分者间信度较好。
