What is a "Screening" Test?

What is a Screening Test?

Curious clients often start by taking one or more of the on-line screening tests listed below (not definitive tests).

​

Screening tests are initial assessments designed to identify individuals who might be autistic or an ADHD'er. These tests are typically brief and aim to quickly determine whether a more comprehensive evaluation is necessary. Screening tests are not diagnostic tools but rather serve to flag potential developmental issues or ASD characteristics.

​

Screener says "low" or "no"

If the results of the screening tests below indicate no or a very low indication of autism or ADHD as compared to the average for the population, you may decide that an in-depth evaluation is not warranted.

​

Screener says "possible"

However, if the screening tests indicate that ASD and/or ADHD is possible, you should strongly consider an in-depth evaluation.  The first step is to fill out our contact form so you can book a free consult with us.

Warning

Please be aware that these screening tests:
 

• are limited in depth and scope,
   

• may limit the amount that you learn about yourself,
   

• are insufficient for a in-depth assessment, and
   

• are not a replacement for an assessment by a caring and well-trained clinician.
