    How to Use the Assessment

    Items focus on practical, everyday activities required to function, meet


    environmental demands, care for oneself, and interact with others effectively and
    independently. On a 4-point response scale, raters indicate whether, and how
    frequently, the individual performs each activity.

    The ABAS-3 includes five rating forms, each for a specific age range and
    respondent. These forms can be completed by parents, family members, teachers,
    daycare staff, supervisors, counselors, or others who are familiar with the daily
    activities of the individual being evaluated. In addition, the Adult Form can function
    as a self-rating. All forms are also available in Spanish
