AbstractBackground The Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) offers the possibility to obtain information about a large number of psychiatric and somatic symptoms in a short period of time. This study aimed to examine symptom profiles and the usefulness of the CBCL for screening purposes in ASD. Method Our sample comprised 1800 children and adolescents aged 4–18 years (M = 10.91, SD 3.34), who had been diagnosed with high-functioning ASD (n = 130, IQ > 70), ADHD (n = 337), Internalizing Disorders (n = 364) or other psychiatric disorders (n = 969). Results In line with previous research, children and adolescents with ASD showed a high prevalence of behavior problems, which was even higher in cases of comorbid ASD + ADHD. However, the sensitivity and specificity of the CBCL syndrome scales were low. Conclusion Although the CBCL is not a suitable screening instrument for the identification of ASD, high scores on the syndrome scales Social problems, Withdrawn, Thought problems and also Attention problems might be an indication for further and differential diagnostic procedures. Concerning the evaluation of co-occurring behavior problems in ASD the CBCL is of good utility ? as part of a thorough assessment routine. |
