Autism Evaluations
At the Arizona Institute for Autism, there is no single lab test to diagnose autism. This means children need a series of tests for autism and observations to get to the bottom of what’s causing their symptoms. Once we have an accurate Autism Spectrum Disorder disorder diagnosis assessment, our team can make sure your child gets the specialized care and support they need.

Types of Pediatric Diagnostic Evaluations for Autism
​
At the Arizona Institute for Autism, we diagnose autism by observing your child’s behavior and the information you provide about their development. These evaluations typically take place with professionals from different disciplines, including psychology, speech-language pathology, psychiatry and neurology. Testing for autism may include:

Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS): Our specialists use this detailed testing tool to diagnose autism spectrum disorders. Designed for children of all ages, we use this test to better understand a child’s language and social skills and understand their development. The ADOS is based on evaluating a child’s response and interactions to a series of play-based social situations. This might include watching a younger child’s behavior during activities with blocks or at snack time or talking about going to school with an older child who has speaking ability.
