  • Especially Raads-R, the statistical accuracy is insane. Meaning it has an unusually low rate of false positives, so a high score is a fairly reliable indicator. Especially considering it’s a self report.

    Edit: newer studies have found that while RAADS-R can be a useful tool to indicate need for further diagnosis, it is not as reliable as the original study indicated. Most notably, the test does an excellent job of screening for neurodivergence but fails to consider which traits are necessarily autistic and which traits are related to other conditions, such as ADHD.
