  Gilliam Asperger Disorder Scale (GADS) Kit PE121 #233
Gilliam Asperger Disorder Scale (GADS) Kit PE121  Based on the most current and relevant definitions and diagnostic criteria of Asperger's Disorder, the GADS is useful for contributing valuable information of children who have this disorder. This test provides documentation about the essential behavior characteristics of Asperger's Disorder necessary for diagnosis.
