Ds is going through diagnosis for autism, have received a letter this morning for one of the medicals he went through with paediatrician. Just wondered if anyone knows what ADQ means ??? Its for a test result and states 'ADQ of 22'(abn).
Has anyone any idea???? Hope so!!
Many thanks clarissa

"socially adaptive development quotient" is what I found by googling

Guess that means, how good socically he is, as separate from IQ

will look up abn and come back to you

can't find abn, but it must be some kind of reference to the measurement system. You sound like you've got a very thorough report as I'd never even heard of ADQ!

Just a normal sheet that I get everytime we visit the paed, but this time with ds test results which include an ADQ of 22 (abn), normal hearing, normal chromosomes, Fragile X, amino and organic acids ???

I am presuming (abn) means abnormal??!! Now trying to search as to what the score 22 is!!!
