Le situazioni sociali possono sembrare sorprendentemente complicate. Il test LSAS, acronimo di Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale, offre un modo strutturato per capire come la paura e l'evitamento si manifestino nelle interazioni quotidiane. In questa guida spiego cosa misura il test LSAS, come completarlo correttamente e come vengono interpretati i punteggi, con una leggera...
Hi, I’m Dora. As a psychology researcher and writer, I’ve worked hands-on with ADHD rating scales to understand what they truly capture and where they fall short. On September 18, 2024, I ran a small pilot in my lab comparing the NICHQ Vanderbilt Assessment Scales with the SNAP-IV and the ADHD-RS-5 across 12 children referred…
When parents or teachers notice subtle social or behavioral differences in a child, the first question is usually, “Where do I start?” The ASSQ test, short for Autism Spectrum Screening Questionnaire, offers a structured, research-backed first step. In this guide, I’ll explain what the ASSQ is, how to complete and score it, and what the…
When parents or teachers ask me about early autism screening, the CAST autism questionnaire often comes up first. It’s short, practical, and designed for children aged 4–11. But like any screener, it’s only one piece of the picture. In this guide, I’ll explain what the CAST is, how to complete it, how scoring works (including…
Hi, I’m Dora. I’ve piloted RAADS-14 in a small adult outpatient intake workflow and, separately, ran a sandbox evaluation to test completion time, missing-data behavior, and item-level reliability when deployed via a privacy-preserving web form. Below, I share what actually matters in regulated settings: purpose, scoring, cutoffs, limitations, and links to original sources. Quick note:…
Hi, I’m Dora. If you’re shipping AI into regulated clinical workflows, “autism vs ADHD” isn’t just a diagnostic nuance, it’s a data, labeling, and safety problem. I’ve built and evaluated LLM pipelines around developmental and neurobehavioral screening in HIPAA/GDPR environments, and the biggest risks I’ve seen come from oversimplified symptom mappings and tool misuse. In…
Hi, I’m Dora. When anxiety feels like a constant background hum, it helps to have a simple, trusted way to check in with yourself. The GAD-7 test is a short, research-backed questionnaire that screens for generalized anxiety symptoms. I use it often in my work as a warm-hearted psychology communicator, not to diagnose, but to…
If you’ve heard of the PHQ-9 test but aren’t sure what it actually tells you, you’re in the right place. I’m a psychology communicator and researcher who translates clinical tools into everyday language. I don’t diagnose or treat: I simply share science-based explanations and universal strategies so you can understand yourself and support the people…
Hey, I’m Dora. If you’ve heard about the RAADS-R test and you’re wondering whether it can clarify lifelong social or sensory differences, you’re in the right place. I’ve taken the RAADS-R myself, I keep tabs on the research, and I work hard to separate what’s clinically useful from what’s just internet lore. Below, I explain…
Hi, I’m Dora. The Autism-Spectrum Quotient (AQ test) is one of the most cited self-report screeners for autistic traits in adults. If I work in regulated health-AI or clinical product teams, we’ll encounter the AQ test in user studies, triage flows, and model evaluation datasets. Below, I clarify what the AQ measures, how AQ-50 compares…
