This self-report questionnaire is suitable for children.
The questionnaire was developed by the Autism Research Centre at the University of Cambridge, for assessing the severity of autism spectrum symptoms in children.
The Childhood Autism Spectrum Test or CAST (formerly the “Childhood Asperger’s Syndrome Test”) is a 39-item, yes or no evaluation aimed at parents.
Scores are calculated by adding up items. Higher scores indicate more symptoms. Scores can range between 0-31.
Cut-off point is currently set at 15, implying possible ASD or related social-communication difficulties.
