适应功能（能力）和自闭症障碍（残疾）之间的关系仍然不清楚，特别是对于自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）的高功能个体。本研究调查的能力和残疾使用葡萄园和自闭症诊断观察计划（ADOS），分别在两个临床样本的ASD儿童。参与者包括187名VIQ > 70的男性。Vineland的分数大大低于VIQ，突出了适应性障碍的程度，尽管有认知潜力。能力和残疾之间的关系很弱。年龄与Vineland评分呈负相关，与ADOS评分无相关性。智商和葡萄园沟通之间存在正相关关系。结果强调需要对ASD的能力和残疾进行纵向研究，并强调适应技能干预的重要性。
The relationship between adaptive functioning (ability) and autism symptomatology (disability) remains unclear, especially for higher functioning individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This study investigates ability and disability using the Vineland and Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS), respectively, in two clinical samples of children with ASD. Participants included 187 males with VIQ > 70. Vineland scores were substantially below VIQ, highlighting the magnitude of adaptive impairments despite cognitive potential. A weak relationship was found between ability and disability. Negative relationships were found between age and Vineland scores and no relationships were found between age and ADOS scores. Positive relationships were found between IQ and Vineland Communication. Results stress the need for longitudinal studies on ability and disability in ASD and emphasize the importance of adaptive skills intervention.
