May 14, 2020 · AQ showed good accuracy in differentiating ASD from NCC (AUC = 0.84), while discriminant ability was poor in the clinical sample (AUC = 0.63). Finally, AQ did not correlate with clinician-rated ADOS-2 scores in the ASD sample.

Citation indexing databases Scopus, PubMed (Medline), PsycINFO, and Web of Science were queried for articles utilizing the AQ. Titles, abstracts and keywords were searched for (“autism quotient”) OR (“autis* spectrum quotient”) OR (“AQ” AND “autism”). Exploded MeSH terms were not used because of the narrow target of interest; studies were only cons...
The first author (ER) performed 100% of the literature search, quality assessment, and data extraction. In order to assess reliability of this process, approximately 10% of the results returned by the literature search were examined by authors CA, PS, and SBC. Each of the second reviewers received a random sample of 30 articles for evaluation (tota...
The following information was recorded: 1. 1. Number of participants, delineated by sex if reported 2. 2. Mean and standard deviation of AQ score for males, females, and the sexes combined 3. 3. Range of AQ score, if reported 4. 4. Test for normality, if reported 5. 5. Mean and standard deviation of participants’ age 6. 6. Recruitment strategy, if ...
This systematic review aims to explore the distribution of a single variable - AQ score - in a large nonclinical population sample; therefore in this case, a meta-analysis (for effect sizes) is not possible. Data were imported into R for systematic analysis. The mean of means was calculated by differentially weighting the reported values by sample...
Feb 28, 2019 · In a systematic review and meta-analysis, Ruzich et al. (2015) gathered evidence from 73 studies that used the AQ that tested participants with and without autism. 1 They concluded that people with autism score higher on autistic traits than people without autism.

The Rasch analysis showed that the 50-item AQ could be reduced to a 12-item subset with little loss of explanatory power, with the potential to efficiently measure the degree to which adults with and without ASD show autistic traits.

Oct 1, 2020 · Introduction. Epidemiological research shows that autism spectrum disorder (ASD) occurs in approximately 1% of the adult population (Brugha et al. 2011 ).
Aug 29, 2019 · The Autism-Spectrum Quotient (AQ) is a psychometric scale that is commonly used to assess autistic-like traits and behaviors expressed by neurotypical individuals. A potential strength of the AQ is that it provides subscale scores that are specific to certain dimensions associated with autism such as social difficulty and restricted interests.
