Theoretical framework: Short screening form for autism spectrum traits in adults, derived from the longer RAADS-R.

Reliability: Original validation study reported good internal consistency and strong discrimination between ASD and non-ASD psychiatric samples.

Validity: Validated in an adult psychiatric outpatient population against clinical ASD diagnosis.

Limitations: Imported from the OpenScales open item-bank project. This specific digital implementation has not been independently clinically validated by PsiQ — scores are for self-reflection and educational purposes only, and are not a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder.
