Beskrivelse: Autism Spectrum Screening Questionnaire (ASSQ) ble publisert i 1999 av Ehlers, Gillberg og Wing og er oversatt til norsk av Anita Eriksson og Anne Mari Sund. Testen er utviklet for å være et screeningverktøy for å identifisere barn med mulig autismespekterforstyrrelse, beregnet på utfylling fra voksne informanter som kjenner barnet godt. ASSQ har en enkelt hovedskala og anbefalte grenseverdier (indikasjon på mulig autisme) for lærere og foreldre. Testen består av 27 ledd og det er ingen formelle kompetansekrav for bruk eller tolkning.
Litteratursøk: Litteratursøk resulterte i 121 treff, hvorav 21 norske og 9 svenske eller danske artikler ble inkludert. Disse inneholdt dokumentasjon på interraterreliabilitet, begrepsvaliditet, kriterievaliditet, diskriminant validitet og normer for en avgrenset aldersgruppe. Det ble funnet middelverdier for ulike kliniske grupper (autisme, cerebral parese, nevrologiske tilstander, premature barn, barn av mødre med rusmisbruk eller røyking i svangerskapet). ASSQ har utmerket test-retest reliabilitet. Testens begrepsvaliditet synes å være tilfredsstillende, selv om det er behov for mer forskning på testens konvergerende og diskriminerende validitet.
Konklusjon: ASSQ synes å ha gode egenskaper som klinisk screeningverktøy i den forstand at lærer- eller foreldrerapporterte skårer over grenseverdi indikerer mulig autismespekterforstyrrelse som bør utredes nærmere av en kliniker. Ved bruk i forskningsprosjekter er det usikkert hvor treffsikkert det er å bruke skåre over klinisk grenseverdi som proxy for diagnostisert autisme da det blir mange falske positive uten at testresultatene suppleres med en grundig diagnostisk vurdering. Validiteten til det å bruke totalskåren som et kontinuerlig mål på hvor en befinner seg på autismespekteret er også usikkert.
