婴儿自闭症观察量表 (AOSI) 旨在检测和监测高危婴儿（所有婴儿的哥哥姐姐患有自闭症谱系障碍）中出现的自闭症早期症状。在这里，我们描述了该量表及其发展，并提供了其可靠性的初步数据。 6、12 和 18 个月时，总分和认可项目总数的评估者间信度均为良好至优秀；个别项目的可靠性较低，尤其是 6 个月大的婴儿。 12 个月龄时 AOSI 的重测可靠性在可接受的范围内。 AOSI 提供可靠数据的证据是评估其区分患有 ASD 的高风险婴儿的功效的关键第一步。
The Autism Observation Scale for Infants (AOSI) was developed to detect and monitor early signs of autism as they emerge in high-risk infants (all with an older sibling with an autistic spectrum disorder). Here we describe the scale and its development, and provide preliminary data on its reliability. Inter-rater reliability both for total scores and total number of endorsed items is good to excellent at 6, 12 and 18 months; reliability is more modest for individual items, particularly in 6-month-olds. Test-retest reliability of the AOSI at 12 months of age is within acceptable limits. Evidence that the AOSI provides reliable data is the first critical step towards evaluating its efficacy in distinguishing high-risk infants who develop ASD.
