Autism Appraisal

Autism Appraisal refers to the assessment process used to evaluate individuals for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This involves collecting information on an individual’s behavior, communication skills, and social interactions through interviews, questionnaires, and observations. Professionals may use standardized tests to gauge the severity of symptoms and how they affect daily functioning. The goal is to understand the individual's strengths and challenges, leading to appropriate support and treatment options. Accurate appraisal helps in creating tailored interventions to enhance the individual's quality of life and development.
