The Autism - Tics, AD/HD and other Comorbidities inventory (A-TAC): further validation of a telephone interview for epidemiological research

TL;DR: Although the A-TAC is principally intended for epidemiological research and general investigations, the instrument may be useful as a tool to collect information in clinical practice as well, and different cut-off levels for screening versus identifying proxies for clinical diagnoses are warranted.
Journal ArticleDOI

The impact of ADHD and autism spectrum disorders on temperament, character, and personality development.

TL;DR: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and autism spectrum disorders are associated with specific temperament configurations and an increased risk of personality disorders and deficits in character maturation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predictive properties of the A-TAC inventory when screening for childhood-onset neurodevelopmental problems in a population-based sample

TL;DR: The A-TAC appeared to be a valid instrument to assess NDPs in this population-based, longitudinal study, with an excellent ability to distinguish NDPs (mainly ASDs) from non-NDPs at least three years after the screening evaluations, although specific diagnoses did not correspond closely to actual clinical diagnoses.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Autism–Tics, ADHD and other Comorbidities inventory (A-TAC): previous and predictive validity

TL;DR: A-TAC is a broad screening instrument with a particular strength in assessing ASD, ADHD, LD, and ODD at ages 9 and 12, and also provides phenotypic information about other child psychiatric disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Autism—Tics, AD/HD and other Comorbidities (A-TAC) telephone interview: Convergence with the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL)

TL;DR: The A-TAC has convergent validity with the CBCL in several problem areas, but the A- TAC also provides more detailed and specific assessments of ASD symptoms and related neuropsychiatric problems.
