Comparing iPad? and Paper Assessments for Children With ASD: An Initial StudyKeywords: assessment,autism,other pervasive developmental disorders,exceptionalities,vocabulary,technology iPad Abstract: iPad? and paper versions of a receptive vocabulary assessment were administered to 4- to 6-year olds with a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). No differences were found between scores on the two assessments. Standardized testing for children with ASD can be challenging; however, testing using the iPad? may offer a different avenue as it provides visual input that appears to be motivating. Findings suggest iPad? assessments offer an efficient format for itinerant speech-language pathologists (SLPs) and SLPs providing telepractice when creating individualized evaluation plans
