Guest guest Posted October 23, 2001 Report Share Posted October 23, 2001 > Ok am I a bad mother for not knowing what the heck > CARS? Yes! You are a bad mother. Okay, Jacquie, I was just kidding. Seriously, the CARS test is used to diagnose children with autism; it is VERY commonly used and I would be surprised to hear that a formal diagnosis of autism did not include the CARS test which, I think, stands for Children's Autism Rating Scale. The ATEC is a test that is, I think? in an experimental form. I can send copies of them to you if you want and you can see how Ben does (are you sure the CARS wasn't used? I don't know the ADOS, but that doesn't mean much. Or does it mean I am a bad mother? Hmm.) > ATEC and all the other test you are talking about!

You don't need them and technically you are not qualified to give these tests, but the fact is that with a young child they always have to rely heavily on parent reports so you can get a very good idea of where your child stands with the ATEC and the CARS and best of all you can see the scores drop as your child does therapy. Fearless Leader's went from, I think, an ATEC of 107 to 19 by Jacquie's rating and 21 by Marc's rating. Amazing. Those are not autism scores although, still has autistic issues. But it is a wonderful thing to see happen. Salli Salli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was tres naive when they did the testing I never though to ask I assumed they would tell me what I needed to know!! I am sure she must of done them! The ADOS from what I understand is a fairly new test, alot better then the older ones apparently, it is catching some of the HFA that would have otherwise be DX PDD or some other developmental disorder! >You don't need them and technically you are not qualified to give these >tests, but the fact is that with a young child they always have to rely >heavily on parent reports so you can get a very good idea of where your >child stands with the ATEC and the CARS and best of all you can see the >scores drop as your child does therapy.
