This rating requires that much of the child's speech provide both a response to the examiner's speech and some additional talking (not necessarily a question) that builds on what has just been said and allows a response from the examiner (i.e., sequences of at least four elements: examiner opens, child comments, examiner responds, child responds to response). 1 = Speech includes some spontaneous elaboration of the child's own responses for the examiner's benefit OR provides leads for the examiner to follow, but either this is less in amount than would be expected for the child's expressive language level or it is limited in flexibility. 2 = Little reciprocal conversation sustained by the child; may follow his or her own train of thought rather than participate in an interchange; may have some spontaneous offering of information or comments, but little sense of reciprocity. 3 = Little spontaneous communicative speech (although there may be much echoed or noncommunicative speech). This rating can be used to describe children who make some limited, but very few, responses to conversational initiations. by the examiner.

Spontaneous Initiation of Joint Attention |
|
Nulled value range of: 0;1;2 to accept outlier data. 0 = Uses clearly integrated eye contact to reference an object that is out of reach by looking at the object, then at the examiner or the parent/caregiver, and then back to the object.

One clear example of an attempt to draw another person's attention to an object (i.e., more than just referencing) is sufficient for this rating. 1 = Partially references an object that is clearly out of reach. May spontaneously look and point to the object and/or vocalize, but does not coordinate either of these with looking at another person, OR may look at an object and then look at or point to the examiner or the parent/caregiver, but not look back at the object. 2 = No approximation of spontaneous initiation of joint attention in order to reference an object that is out of reach.

Unusually Repetitive Interests or Stereotyped Behaviors |
|
Nulled value range of: 0;1;2;3 to accept outlier data. 0 = No repetitive or stereotyped behaviors during the ADOS evaluation. 1 = An interest or behavior that is repetitive or stereotyped to an unusual degree, including an intense interest in a particular toy or object, a definite interest in an unusual object or activity (odd for the child's level of motor skill), an unusually routinized activity, or a clear interest in a part of an object. This interest or behavior occurs in conjunction with several other activities and does not prevent the child from completing any ADOS activities. 2 = Clearly repetitive or stereotyped interests and/or behaviors, as described above. These behaviors may form a substantial minority of the child's interests and spontaneous behaviors and may interfere with the child's ability to complete ADOS activities, but it is possible for his or her attention to be directed to other objects or activities, at least momentarily. 3 = Repetitive or stereotyped interests and/or behaviors, as described above, form the majority of the child's interests, AND/OR attempts to direct his or her attention to other objects or activities are met with significant resistance and/or distress.
