Event Details
About the course
- This two-day web-based training is intended to introduce new users of the Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R) to administration and scoring principles of the instrument.
- The ADI-R is a semi-structured, standardized parent interview designed to elicit information about social-communication deficits and restricted and repetitive behaviors associated with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
- The course will be led by Dr. Somer Bishop, Ph.D., who has used the ADI-R extensively for clinical and research purposes.
- She will use a combination of lecture and video examples to teach the basics of ADI-R administration and scoring.
- Trainees will have the opportunity to view and code two full ADI-R administrations.
- The trainer will lead discussion of each ADI-R code, and will instruct trainees about how to complete the algorithm form and determine ADI-R classification.
- In addition, the course will cover best-practice guidelines for using the ADI-R as part of ASD diagnostic assessment.
- Information will be provided about psychometrics and recent research on the ADI-R, as well as instructions for obtaining further training and practice following this introductory course.
- Explain the use of the ADI-R
- Explain ADI-R administration
- Demonstrate ADI-R administration with videos from the first case.
- Explain the 5 sections of questions that make up the ADI-R and apply them in the video.
- Discuss coding results and review administration
- Revise scoring and complete algorithm
- Discuss doubts about the contents learned on day one.
- Demonstrate ADI-R administration with videos from the second case.
- Apply the 5 sections of questions that make up the ADI-R in the video
- Revise coding results and review administration
- Revise scoring of day two and complete algorithm
- Explain ADI-R psychometrics and appropriate use
- Discuss doubts about the contents learned
