    Product Details

    The GARS-3 yields standard scores, percentile ranks, severity level, and probability of autism. Items on the GARS-3 are based on the 2013 diagnostic criteria for autism spectrum disorder adopted by the APA.

    Benefits

    • Correlates with other well-known diagnostic tests for autism at magnitude large or very large.
    • Includes all new validity studies that show test results are valid for a wide variety of subgroups, as well as for the general population.
    • Accurately discriminates children with autism spectrum disorder from children without autism (sensitivity = .97, specificity = .97, ROC/AUC = .93).
    • Internal consistency (content sampling) reliability coefficients for the subscales exceed .85 and the Autism Indexes exceed .93.
    • Test-retest (time sampling) reliability coefficients exceed .80 for subscales and .90 for the Autism Indexes.
    • Interrater reliability intraclass coefficients exceed .80 and .84 for the Autism Indexes.

    Features

    The instrument consists of 56 items grouped into six subscales: Restrictive/Repetitive Behaviors, Social Interaction, Social Communication, Emotional Responses, Cognitive Style, and Maladaptive Speech.

    • Includes four new items.
    • All six subscales have been empirically determined to be valid and sensitive for identification of children with ASD.
    • An interpretation guide provides the examiner with an easy and efficient method for assessing the probability and severity of autism spectrum disorder.
    • A diagnostic validation form is included to ensure test results meet DSM-5 criteria for autism spectrum disorder.
    • Demographic characteristics of the normative sample are keyed to those reported by U.S. Bureau of the Census in 2011.
