Further, we compared these to previously established CBCL ASD profiles/subscales and DSM-oriented subscales. The second aim was to cross-validate results in two truly independent samples (N = 2445 and 886). Despite relatively low discriminative power of all subscales in the cross-validation samples, results indicated that the data-driven subscale had the best potential to screen for ASD and a similar screening potential as the DSM-oriented subscales. Given beneficial implications for pediatric/clinical practice, we encourage colleagues to continue the validation of this CBCL ASD subscale. | DOI: | 10.1007/s10803-022-05465-7 | Resources: | https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&AuthType=ip,athens&db=ccm&AN=162233042&site=ehost-live | Type: | Article |
