Parent and Teacher Agreement in the Assessment of Pervasive Developmental Disorders.
Szatmari, P.; And Others
Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, v24 n6 p703-17 Dec 1994
Parents and teachers of 83 young children diagnosed with a pervasive developmental disorder rated each child on the Autism Behavior Checklist (ABC) and the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales (VABS). Although there was good agreement between informants on the VABS, there was virtually no agreement on the ABC, with parents reporting more autistic and less adaptive behaviors than teachers. (DB)
