Autism (ASD) assessments.

PECS conducts comprehensive autism (Autism Spectrum Disorder) assessments for children and adults using gold-standard instruments and a multi-source approach.

What this assessment involves

For: Children, adolescents and adults

  • Comprehensive ADOS-2 administration (the gold-standard observation tool)
  • Cognitive and adaptive functioning assessment
  • ADI-R developmental interview where applicable
  • Multi-informant rating scales and developmental history
  • A detailed written report with diagnostic considerations and recommendations

PECS uses person-first language by default and recognises that some people in the autistic community prefer identity-first language. We follow each client's and family's preference.

What the report supports

Specialist and paediatrician referrals
NDIS access and plan reviews
School accommodations and support planning
