Clinical best estimate diagnoses of specific autism spectrum disorders (autistic disorder, pervasive developmental disorder-not otherwise specified, Asperger’s disorder) have been used as the diagnostic gold standard, even when information from standardized instruments is available. To determine if the relationships between behavioral phenotypes and clinical diagnoses of different autism spectrum disorders vary across 12 university-based sites. Multi-site observational study collecting clinical phenotype data (diagnostic, developmental and demographic) for genetic research. Classification trees were employed to identify characteristics that predicted diagnosis across and within sites. Participants were recruited through 12 university-based autism service providers into a genetic study of autism. 2102 probands (1814 males) between 4 and 18 years of age (M age=8.93, SD=3.5 years) who met autism spectrum criteria on the Autism Diagnostic Interview–Revised and Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule and had a clinical diagnosis of an autism spectrum disorder. Best estimate clinical diagnoses predicted by standardized scores from diagnostic, cognitive, and behavioral measures. Though distributions of scores on standardized measures were similar across sites, significant site differences emerged in best estimate clinical diagnoses of specific autism spectrum disorders. Relationships between clinical diagnoses and standardized scores, particularly verbal IQ, language level and core diagnostic features, varied across sites in weighting of information and cut-offs. Clinical distinctions among categorical diagnostic subtypes of autism spectrum disorders were not reliable even across sites with well-documented fidelity using standardized diagnostic instruments. Results support the move from existing sub-groupings of autism spectrum disorders to dimensional descriptions of core features of social affect and fixated, repetitive behaviors, together with characteristics such as language level and cognitive function.
