Report structure

This page describes the elements which are present in the 3di's Full and Brief reports.

The 3di report components have evolved over time. This page describes the reports as found in the latest version of the software. For older versions, consult the user guide provided at the time of your training.

Full report structure

The Full report includes the following components. In Word, you can see the report structure in the Navigation pane (Ctrl-F, or in the ribbon, click View → Show → Navigation pane). Below we use an example child named Sam.

3di assessment for Sam

Basic details of the child, referral, interviewer and interviewed, and the family’s account of presenting problems.

The family

Basic demographic details of the family and household members.

Sam's medical history

The child’s medical history. Medication and hospital visits.

Sam’s educational history

The child’s educational history. Schools attended, academic difficulties, and special abilities.

Sam's developmental history

Pregnancy and birth, motor skills, hearing, eating, bladder and bowel, sleeping behaviour.

Autism spectrum disorder

This section contains language milestones and the scored Children's Communication Checklist (CCC) table.

DSM-5: ASD extended assessment

This pair of tables give scores out of 100 based on the DSM-5 extended route for each of the symptomatic elements within Criteria A and B for ASD. See 3. DSM-5 extended.

DSM-5: ASD brief assessment

Two tables DSM-5: ASD brief assessment, Criterion A/B give percentage scores based on the DSM-5 brief route for the seven sub-criteria within Criteria A and B for ASD. See 4. DSM-5 brief.

ICD-10 ASD

From 2022 onwards this section is by default excluded from the report, but is retained as an option for those users who still administer this older version of the assessment. Enable this section from the Preferences window. See Including ICD-10 scores.

The Autism Spectrum Disorder subscales table records ASD outcomes according to ICD-10 and DSM-4 and derived from scores in the triad of behavioural domains (social reciprocity, communication, repetitive behaviours and interests) based on the questions in 1. ICD-10 extended.

The Developmental normality table records motor and language milestones, and age at onset of ASD symptomatology.

The tables are followed by an indicative Autism Spectrum Disorder diagnosis (ICD-10) according to the rules laid out in the flowchart provided in the Reference folder of your 3di installation, and formerly taught on 3di training courses.

Syndromes associated with autistic features

Only present if you answered the relevant questions. Records your responses to the questions about Rett, Fragile-X, and Tuberous sclerosis.

Regression

Only present if you answered the relevant questions. Records any noted regressions in language, motor, play or toileting skills.

Comorbidities

Consists of a scoring table for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), any Conduct disorders (table is absent if none recorded), and any recorded Tic disorders.

Brief report structure

The brief report includes the following components. In Word, you can see the report structure in the Navigation pane (Ctrl-F, or in the ribbon, click View → Show → Navigation pane). Below we use an example child named Sam.

DSM-5: ASD brief assessment

This same section appears in the full report.

Two tables DSM-5: ASD brief assessment, Criterion A/B give percentage scores based on the DSM-5 brief route for the seven sub-criteria within Criteria A and B for ASD. See 4. DSM-5 brief. These tables are an alternative view to the section above. From 2022-2024, both interpretations of the same responses are presented, once in each format.

ICD-10 ASD

From 2022 onwards this section is by default excluded from the report, but is retained as an option for those users who still administer this older version of the assessment. Enable this section from the Preferences window. See Including ICD-10 scores.

The Autism Spectrum Disorder subscales table records ASD outcomes according to ICD-10 and DSM-4 and derived from scores in the triad of behavioural domains (social reciprocity, communication, repetitive behaviours and interests) based on the smaller number of questions in 2. ICD-10 brief.

Despite having the same title and format as the corresponding table in the full report, the ICD-10 ASD table in the brief report is based on the reduced question set of the ICD-10 brief assessment. For a comparison, see The four ASD assessments.

The Developmental normality table records motor and language milestones, and age at onset of ASD symptomatology.

The tables are followed by an indicative Autism Spectrum Disorder diagnosis (ICD-10) according to the rules laid out in the flowchart provided in the Reference folder of your 3di installation, and formerly taught on 3di training courses.
