The Ritvo Autism Asperger Diagnostic Scale–Revised (RAADS–R) is a self-report
questionnaire designed to identify adult autistics who “escape diagnosis” due to
a subclinical level presentation.
BASIC INFORMATION
Statements: 80 Duration: 10–30 minutes Type: screening tool Authors: Riva
Ariella Ritvo et al. Publishing year: 2011 Seminal paper: The Ritvo Autism
Asperger Diagnostic Scale-Revised (RAADS–R): A Scale to Assist the Diagnosis of
Autism Spectrum Disorder in Adults: An International Validation Study (Ritvo et
al., 2011)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ORIGINAL RAADS
Statements: 78 Publishing year: 2008 Seminal paper: A Scale to Assist the
Diagnosis of Autism and Asperger’s Disorder in Adults (RAADS): A Pilot Study
(Ritvo et al., 2008)
Take the test here:
RAADS–R
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*The test has good reliability when self-administered, but this can drop down to
30% when clinicians administer it, depending on their understanding of autism.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHO THE TEST IS DESIGNED FOR
* Adults (age 16+) with ASD level 1 or subclinical autism.
* Adults with IQ in the normal range (IQ >=80).[1]A Scale to Assist the
Diagnosis of Autism and Asperger’s Disorder in Adults (RAADS): A Pilot Study
(Ritvo et al., 2008)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VERSIONS & TRANSLATIONS
The RAADS–R has been translated into Swedish, and was also available in most
languages through Google Translate. But as of 13 January 2022, it seems the
online RAADS–R tests have been taken down. As far as we know, we are currently
the only ones who host the RAADS–R online, albeit in English only.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TAKING THE TEST
The RAADS–R is a self-report instrument. However, the authors mention that a
clinician might help a participant interpret items if they have difficulty
understanding the question.
The test assesses developmental symptoms correlating with the three DSM-5
diagnostic categories (Language, Social relatedness, Sensory–motor) as well as a
fourth subscale, Circumscribed interests. It consists of 80 statements, giving
you 4 choices for each statement:
* True now and when I was young
* True now only
* True only when I was younger than 16
* Never true
If you decide to take the test, please consider the Discussion section below.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SCORING
BASICS
* Scoring range: 0–240
* Threshold score: 65↑
* 65+ you are likely autistic (no neurotypical scored above 64 in the research)
* <65 you are likely not autistic (97% chance of not being autistic)
SCORING METHODS
You can take the test using two methods:
* Automated-scoring
* Paper-based if you want documentation of your answers (you can find the
scoring key at the bottom of the PDF)
SCORING
The scoring of most of the statements (63) is as follows:
* True now and when I was young (3 points)
* True now only (2 points)
* True only when I was younger than 16 (1 point)
* Never true (0 points)
However, the point value is reversed for the 17 so-called normative
questions:[2]The Ritvo Autism Asperger Diagnostic Scale-Revised (RAADS–R): A
scale to assist the diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder in adults: An
international validation study (Ritvo et al., 2011)
* True now and when I was young (0 points)
* True now only (1 point)
* True only when I was younger than 16 (2 points)
* Never true (3 points)
Below you can see an example of the first 3 questions, the first of which
(denoted by an asterisk) is normative and thus has reversed scoring.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUBSCALES
LANGUAGE
The language subscale is made up of 7 statements. The focus of these statements
is on:
* Movie talk: Friends notice you’ve heard something new because you start using
the word or phrase regularly.
* Small talk: A light conversation about unimportant things that people make
during social interactions—instead of topics that are actually interesting
and fun to talk about.
* Being literal: Having challenges when ‘what is said’ language does not match
‘what is meant’ language.
SOCIAL RELATEDNESS
The social relatedness subscale is made up of 39 statements. The focus of these
statements is on:
* Mentalization: Challenges with understanding what others are thinking or
feeling.
* Mutual interests: Preferring to be with people with whom you share interests.
* Outsider: Being considered ‘different’.
* Bluntness: Being called rude; or that you have asked embarrassing questions;
or pointed out when others have made an error.
* Dialectical reciprocity: Challenges knowing when it is your turn to talk, in
a conversation or on the phone.
* Emotional reciprocity: Difficulty knowing when a person is flirting with you.
* Auditory processing issues: Challenges talking with several people at the
same time.
* Object permanence: Not missing people when they’re absent.
* Maintaining relationships: Challenges making or keeping friends.
* Nonverbal communication: Challenges understanding body language.
* Mimicry/imitation: Copying others’ behaviour to fit in.
* Camouflaging: Hiding your automatic behaviours to fit in with others.
SENSORY–MOTOR
The sensory–motor subscale is made up of 20 statements. The focus of these
statements is on:
* Voice volume challenges: Talking very loud, not loud enough, or significant
fluctuations between the two.
* Voice differences: Speaking monotone, like a child, or in silly voices.
* Motor control issues: Clumsiness and being uncoordinated.
* Sensory: Sensory stimulation that doesn’t bother others can be painful and
overwhelming. The experience can differ significantly at various times or be
context-dependent. You may get anxious when overstimulated.
CIRCUMSCRIBED INTERESTS
The circumscribed interests subscale is made up of 14 statements. The focus of
these statements is on:
* Details preference: focuses on details before the big picture, but can do
both.
* Upset when the unexpected occurs: A dislike of someone changing your
routine—this does not mean that you stick to your own routine, just that you
dislike someone else changing YOUR routine.
* Special interests: Speaking about them, having them…

You might ask, “If the threshold score is 65, and no neurotypicals scored higher
than 64 in the research, then why are the average neurotypical scores above 80?”
Excellent question!
The answer is in how the data is being collected. The table above is based on
people taking the RAADS–R online, which for research purposes starts with the
question as to whether you are diagnosed with autism, suspect you’re autistic,
or are not autistic. But some people that answered the latter will—contrary to
their own expectations—end up scoring in the autistic range. Due to this
misattribution, their scores get counted as neurotypical scores despite scoring
in the autistic range, thus skewing the results.
In other words, the average neurotypical scores as reported by the online
RAADS–R (on Aspietests.org) are almost certainly too high. The average scores
you can find in the research literature are more reliable, given that they use
genuine neurotypicals as a control group. In the article below, you can find a
table with average scores that I have taken from the research literature.

Because the table with average scores is based on skewed data, let me also
present the mean scores from Ritvo’s seminal paper:[3]The Ritvo Autism Asperger

VALIDITY
The RAADS–R is a reliable instrument to assist the diagnosis of autistic
adults.[4]The Ritvo Autism Asperger Diagnostic Scale-Revised (RAADS–R): A scale
to assist the diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder in adults: An international
validation study (Ritvo et al., 2011)
* No neurotypical who took the test scored above the autism threshold.
* Only 3% of the autistic group did not score over 65.
* Test–retest reliability was high, particularly for the autistic
group.[5]Table 7 – Test-retest data statistical analysis | The Ritvo Autism
Asperger Diagnostic Scale-Revised (RAADS–R): A scale to assist the diagnosis
of autism spectrum disorder in adults: An international validation study

DISCUSSION
DR. NATALIE ENGELBRECHT:
The test has been validated and cited in the medical literature numerous times.
However, as both an autistic and a psychotherapist, I have some concerns with
the RAADS–R:
* Quite a few of the statements are not actually characteristic of autism and
are likely going to be experienced as demeaning (e.g. I am NEVER a
compassionate type of person).
* A few questions are characteristic of alexithymia rather than autism (e.g.
the ones on lack of compassion and empathy). While alexithymia correlates
strongly with autism, it should not be confused with autism itself.
* Two-thirds of autistic adults were incorrectly identified by clinicians when
they used this test, despite the fact that the test has strong
validity.[7]Examining the Diagnostic Validity of Autism Measures Among Adults
in an Outpatient Clinic Sample (Conner, Cramer, & McGonigle, 2019) I suspect
the reason for this is that the normative questions that indicate what we
ought to be like are outdated. I contacted Dr. Ritvo regarding this, but she
has declined to respond.
My test results are above. And it did identify me as autistic, which I am. The
test is based on the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for autism[8]Diagnostic Criteria
for Autism Spectrum Disorder | CDC which views us as having deficits, deficits,
deficits!
I find many of the questions insensitive and lacking in understanding about what
is normative in regards to autistics. The test claims that a clinician ‘ought’
to see the following characteristics if a person is autistic:
* A lack of compassion
* A dislike of close friendships
* Monotonous speech
* An inability to manage small talk.
Of the 80 statements in the RAADS–R, the following 17 are normative. And
remember, according to the RAADS–R, ‘never true’ gives the highest score (3) for
these statements. Statements that are unlikely to be ‘never true’ for most
autistic people, are in bold.
* 1. I am a sympathetic person
* 6. I can “put myself in other people’s shoes”
* 11. I miss my best friends or family when we are apart for a long time.
* 18. I understand when friends need to be comforted.
* 23. Meeting new people is usually easy for me.
* 26. I like having a conversation with several people, for instance around a
dinner table, at school, or at work.
* 33. I speak with a normal rhythm.
* 37. I am an understanding type of person.
* 43. I like to talk things over with my friends.
* 47. I feel very comfortable dating or being in social situations with others.
* 48. I try to be as helpful as I can when other people tell me their personal
problems.
* 53. I am considered a compassionate type of person.
* 58. I can chat and make small talk with people.
* 62. I usually speak in a normal tone.
* 68. I can tell when someone says one thing but means something else.
* 72. I enjoy spending time eating and talking with my family and friends.
* 77. I like to have close friends.
These descriptions are so lacking in nuance and are not at all representative of
who I am. This is probably my least favourite autism test for that reason alone.
KENDALL:
A significant percentage of the statements are nearly impossible for me to
answer or, have no appropriate answer. It feels like throwing a dart at times;
no choice is accurate, just slightly more or less accurate.
That said, the test has a close to 100% success rate in differentiating autism
from non-autism, despite these limitations.

Score
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHAT DO MY SCORES MEAN?
All scores of 65 or higher are indicative of autistic traits. The higher the
score, the more autistic traits you have. In the table below are general
interpretations of various total scores on the RAADS–R.
MEANING OF RAADS–R SCORES
ScoreInterpretation 25You are not autistic. 50Some autistic traits, but likely
not autistic (yet some autistic people score as low as 44). 65The minimum score
at which autism is considered. 90Stronger indications of autism, although
non-autistics may score as high. 130The mean score of autistic people; strong
evidence for autism. 160Very strong evidence for autism. 227The maximum score
autistic people acquired in Ritvo’s seminal paper on the RAADS–R.[9]The Ritvo
Autism Asperger Diagnostic Scale-Revised (RAADS-R): A Scale to Assist the
Diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder in Adults: An International Validation
Study (Ritvo et al., 2011) 240The maximum possible RAADS–R score.
Do note that no single test is conclusive, and not every autistic person
necessarily scores above the defined threshold on each test. If you score low on
the RAADS–R but still think you could be autistic, try taking a few other autism
tests.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STATEMENTS PER SUBSCALES
Below you can see which statements of the RAADS–R belong to which of the
subscales. Double-click or tap on a subscale to see all statements for that
subscale grouped together.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RECOMMENDED NEXT STEPS
After the RAADS–R, consider taking one of the tests below.
AUTISM SPECTRUM QUOTIENT
A simple screening test that is used as a basis
for pursuing a formal autism evaluation
CAT-Q
Measures camouflaging, and can account
for lower scores on other autism tests
ASPIE QUIZ
Identifies neurodivergence and
potential co-occurring conditions
Online autism tests can play an essential role in the process of self-discovery,
and may inform your decision to pursue a formal diagnosis. For a formal
assessment, please see a knowledgeable medical professional trained in assessing
autism.

People often score higher the second time they take the test. Probably because
they have a better understanding on how to interpret the test, and can think of
more examples from their life that the test items apply to.

I got 150, with a break down of 13, 66, 35, 36. Some of the questions were a bit
confusing, and I couldnt think of if I was like such-and-such before I was 16.

Yeah, it’s hard to answer some of the questions. But I think the score offers a
fair approximation. I did the test a few years ago and a month ago, and I scored
159 and 169 respectively. From what I’ve seen in other people as well, re-taking
the test may result in a higher score, but the difference is usually no greater
than 10. A score of 150 is of course substantially above the threshold of the
test.

I got an 86, an annoying middle ground
But to be fair I basically guessed on a third of the questions because I
couldn’t really tell what the honest answer would be, so could be higher or
lower, which does not help even more

Well, a lot of autistic people have challenges taking this test. I would suggest
taking a few other autism tests, and see if you score above the threshold on
those tests as well. I’m not sure if the Autism Spectrum Quotient is a better
test necessarily, but autistic people don’t have as much of a challenge taking
it. People also seem to like the Aspie Quiz, although it’s less scientifically
validated than the other tests.

Wow, that’s significant! Yeah, we often score higher when we retake the test, I
guess because we gain a better understanding of ourselves and what the test is
getting at. I scored 159 years ago, and I recently retook the test and scored
169. I was diagnosed in 2015.

No single test is conclusive, but 202 is a very significant score. So if you
think a diagnosis could help you, you indeed have a reason to talk to your
doctor to ask for a referral. Alternatively, you could contact us via the
assessments page if you would like to get assessed virtually by Dr. Natalie
Engelbrecht ND RP.

166 the 1st time (I think, I meant to take a picture but forgot) and 171 the
2nd.
I’ve suspected it for years but I’ve also got ADHD and so I don’t know if I’m
just presenting my adhd traits or not… so confusing

I don’t think ADHD alone is likely to account for such a high score. I’m
autistic (diagnosed) with ADHD, and I scored 159 years ago, and 169 when I
retook the test recently.

Just took the test, but question 10 was a bit frustrating seeing as it’s about
one topic, but different actions. Yes, I pay attention to the food in my mouth
but that doesn’t mean that I have the same answer for whether or not it’s more
important than taste.

Yeah, I retook the test last week, and I had the same issue with #10. I think
generally flavor is marginally more important to me than texture, but if either
the flavor or the texture is not as expected, that would probably lead me to put
the food away. A few months back, I had a carrot with virtually no flavor, and
it was so off-putting even though there wasn’t a bad flavor or texture. I just
couldn’t handle flavorless carrots, so I had to throw the whole bag away.

Interesting! The second time may be more accurate, as you become more familiar
with how to interpret the items and how they may apply to you. Some variance
between tests is expected. I redid the test last week, and I scored 169 compared
to 159 a few years ago.
