Although self-reported measures are frequently used to assess adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), the validity of self-reports is under-researched in ASD. The core symptoms of ASD may negatively affect the psychometric properties of self-reported measures. The aim of the present study was to test the validity and reliability of self-reported data using the NEO personality inventory-revised (NEO-PI-R). Forty-eight adults with ASD and 53 controls completed the NEO-PI-R and a psychiatric interview. Results indicate satisfactory internal consistency of the NEO-PI-R, a satisfactory factor structure, predicted correlations with clinician ratings in the ASD group, and predicted differences in personality between the ASD group and controls. In conclusion, the present results support the use of self-reported measures when assessing adults with ASD .
尽管自我报告的测量方法经常被用于评估患有自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）的成年人，但在ASD中自我报告的有效性研究不足。ASD的核心症状可能会对自我报告测量方法的心理测量特性产生负面影响。本研究的目的是使用修订后的NEO人格问卷（NEO-PI-R）来测试自我报告数据的有效性和可靠性。48名患有ASD的成年人和53名对照组完成了NEO-PI-R和一次精神科访谈。结果表明NEO-PI-R具有令人满意的内部一致性、令人满意的因子结构，在ASD组中与临床医生评分的预测相关性，以及ASD组与对照组之间人格的预测差异。总之，目前的结果支持在评估患有ASD的成年人时使用自我报告测量方法。
