The Pre-Linguistic Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (PL-ADOS) is a semistructured observation scale designed for use as a diagnostic tool for children less than 6 years old who are not yet using phrase speech and are suspected of having autism. The PL-ADOS takes approximately 30 minutes to administer and is appropriate for use with this population because of its emphasis on playful interactions and the use of toys designed for young children. Reliability studies indicated that both individual activity ratings and summary ratings could be reliably scored from videotaped assessments by naive raters. Additionally, PL-ADOS scores of nonverbal preschool-aged children referred for clinical diagnosis and classified on the basis of a diagnostic team's clinical judgment, clearly discriminated between autistic and nonautistic developmentally disabled children. The resulting diagnostic algorithm is theoretically linked to diagnostic constructs associated with ICD-10 and DSM-IV criteria for autism.
语言前自闭症诊断观察量表（PL - ADOS）是一种半结构化观察量表，设计用作诊断工具，用于尚未使用短语性言语且疑似患有自闭症的6岁以下儿童。PL - ADOS的施测大约需要30分钟，适用于这一人群，因为它强调趣味性互动以及使用为幼儿设计的玩具。可靠性研究表明，未经专业培训的评分者通过录像评估能够可靠地对个体活动评分和总体评分进行打分。此外，因临床诊断而被转诊且根据诊断团队的临床判断进行分类的非言语学龄前儿童的PL - ADOS分数，能够清晰地区分自闭症儿童和非自闭症的发育障碍儿童。由此产生的诊断算法在理论上与国际疾病分类第10版（ICD - 10）和精神疾病诊断与统计手册第4版（DSM - IV）中自闭症的诊断结构相关联。
