The agreement between the Autism Diagnostic Interview - Revised (ADI-R) and the Childhood Autism Rating Scale ( CARS) was investigated in the diagnostic assessment of 54 children aged 22 - 114 months referred for possible autism. The observed agreement between the two systems was 66.7% (Cohen's kappa =.40) when the ADI-R definition for autism was applied (i.e., scores reaching cutoff in three domains on the ADI-R), but increased considerably with less stringent criteria; that is, scores reaching cutoffs in two domains and in one domain on the ADI-R. As predicted, the CARS identified more cases of autism than the ADI-R. Children classified as autistic according to both instruments had significantly lower IQ/DQ and more severe autistic symptomatology than those classified with the CARS only.
