The second edition of this highly regarded autism assessment offers the convenience of a screener and the power of a diagnostic tool. Completed in just 15 to 20 minutes, the SRS-2 identifies social impairment associated with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) and quantifies its severity. It’s sensitive enough to detect even subtle symptoms, yet specific enough to differentiate clinical groups, both within the autism spectrum and between ASD and other disorders. With its expanded age range, the SRS-2 can monitor symptoms throughout the life span.

Assess Social Impairment in Natural Settings–and From More Than One Perspective

The SRS-2 offers four forms, each with 65 items, and each for a specific age group: 

School-Age Form: for ages 4 through 18, completed by parent or teacher (composed of the same items that appeared on the original SRS)

Preschool Form: for ages 2½ to 4½, completed by parent or teacher

Adult Form: for ages 19 and up, completed by relative or friend

Adult Self-Report: Form for ages 19 and up

While some autism tests require trained professionals to code behaviors observed in clinical settings, the SRS-2 asks teachers, parents, and others to rate symptoms that they’ve noticed —at home, in the classroom, or elsewhere- over time. Raters evaluate symptoms using a quantitative scale representing a range of severity.

This approach—multiple perspectives on behavior observed in natural settings and rated on a graduated response scale—uncovers a wide range of symptoms, including relatively subtle ones. The SRS-2 often reveals aspects of social functioning missed in a clinical context with its “yes-or-no” response format. This is important because even mild social impairment can adversely affect children and adults. Numerous independent studies demonstrate that the SRS-2 is unmatched in its ability to measure the severity of social impairment in the mildest and most common forms of ASD—including Social Communication Disorder, a new diagnosis in DSM-5.

Use the SRS-2 Treatment Subscales to Guide Intervention

In addition to a Total score reflecting the severity of social deficits in the autism spectrum, the SRS-2 generates scores for five Treatment subscales:

- Social Awareness

- Social Cognition

- Social Communication

- Social Motivation

- Restricted Interests and Repetitive Behavior

Although not used for screening or diagnosis, subscale scores help in the design and evaluation of treatment programs.

Similarly, the SRS-2 unlimited-use scoring program provides detailed reports with information useful for intervention.

Compare Symptoms to DSM-5 Criteria for ASD

In addition to the Treatment subscales described above, the SRS-2 offers two new DSM-5–compatible subscales:

- Social Communication and Interaction

- Restricted Interests and Repetitive Behavior

Scores on these subscales make comparing clients' symptoms to DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for Autism Spectrum Disorder easy. Such comparisons inform diagnosis—determining whether the individual meets the current diagnostic criteria for ASD.

Simplify Differential Diagnosis

The SRS-2 has gained support from several independent, peer-reviewed studies conducted internationally in schools and clinics involving diverse populations and diagnostic groups. These studies show that the SRS-2 discriminates both within the autism spectrum and between ASD and other disorders—making the test highly useful for differential diagnosis. When the SRS-2 reveals social deficits associated with autism, it tells you exactly where these symptoms fall on the spectrum. And when the test indicates that autism is not present, it often points to other conditions in which social impairment plays a role. 

SRely on the SRS-2 in Educational, Clinical, and Research Settings

The brevity and sensitivity of the SRS-2 make it useful for a variety of assessment needs in clinical research and educational settings. Its quantitative nature and wide age range make it ideal for measuring response to intervention over time. It is crucial in all of these settings to isolate autism spectrum disorders from other psychiatric conditions, and the SRS-2 is well suited to this purpose. It clearly distinguishes the social impairment characteristic of ASD from that seen in ADHD, anxiety, and other diagnoses.

測驗概述

SRS-2 是一項廣受肯定的自閉症評估工具第二版，兼具篩檢工具的便利性與診斷工具的效力。

在 15–20 分鐘內即可完成，可：

• 辨識與自閉症譜系障礙（ASD）相關的社交功能缺損
• 量化其嚴重程度

對輕微症狀亦具有高敏感度，同時能有效區分：

• 自閉症譜系內不同表現
• ASD 與其他障礙

並可追蹤個體從幼兒至成人的症狀變化。

多情境、多觀點評估

SRS-2 提供四種版本（每份 65 題）：

• 學齡版（4–18 歲）：由家長或教師填寫
• 學齡前版（2.5–4.5 歲）：由家長或教師填寫
• 成人他評版（19 歲以上）：由親友填寫
• 成人自評版（19 歲以上）

不同於需專業觀察的測驗，SRS-2 透過：

• 家長
• 教師
• 照顧者

在自然情境（家庭、學校等）長期觀察後評分

使用分級量表評估症狀嚴重程度

測量優勢

此方法可偵測：

• 廣泛的社交功能問題
• 包含輕微但臨床重要的症狀

即使輕度社交缺損，也可能影響生活功能

研究顯示：

SRS-2 在測量輕度 ASD（如社交溝通障礙）方面具高度敏感性與準確性。

治療分量表（Treatment Subscales）

SRS-2 提供 5 個分量表，有助於介入規劃：

• 社交覺察（Social Awareness）
• 社交認知（Social Cognition）
• 社交溝通（Social Communication）
• 社交動機（Social Motivation）
• 侷限興趣與重複行為（Restricted Interests and Repetitive Behavior）

雖不直接用於診斷，但對治療設計與效果評估非常重要
