背景资料：社交和沟通障碍诊断访谈（DISCO）是一个诊断自闭症谱系和相关障碍以及评估个人需求的时间表。它能够系统地记录各种行为和发展技能的信息，适合所有年龄和能力水平的人使用。除了帮助临床医生获得每个人的发育和行为模式的概况外，DISCO还能够识别自闭症谱系障碍中发现的与现有诊断系统相关的特定特征。方法：本文介绍了DISCO的历史背景，概述了它的结构，并报告了82名3至11岁的自闭症谱系障碍，学习障碍，语言障碍或典型发展的儿童的父母之间的信度研究的结果。结果：评价者间的信度较高（Kappa系数或类内相关系数为0.75或更高）。超过80%的访谈项目达到了这一水平的协议。
Background: The Diagnostic Interview for Social and Communication Disorders (DISCO) is a schedule for the diagnosis of autistic spectrum and related disorders and assessment of individual needs. It enables information to be recorded systematically for a wide range of behaviours and developmental skills and is suitable for use with all ages and levels of ability. In addition to helping the clinician to obtain a profile of each individual's pattern of development and behaviour, the DISCO also enables identification of specific features found in autistic spectrum disorders that are relevant for use with established diagnostic systems. Method: This paper describes the historical background of the DISCO, outlines its structure and reports the results of an inter-rater reliability study with parents of 82 children aged 3 to 11 years with autistic spectrum disorder, learning disability, language disorder or typical development. Results: Inter-rater reliability for the items in the inter-view was high (kappa coefficient or intra-class correlation at .75 or higher). This level of agreement was achieved for over 80% of the interview items.
