Online SCQ Manual

The Social Communication Questionnaire (SCQ) helps evaluate communication skills and social functioning in children who may have autism or autism spectrum disorders. Completed by a parent or other primary caregiver in less than 10 minutes, the SCQ is a cost-effective way to determine whether an individual should be referred for a complete diagnostic evaluation.

It is available in two forms-Lifetime and Current-each composed of just 40 yes-or-no questions. Both forms can be given directly to the parent, who can answer the questions without supervision.

The online SCQ is accessed via the WPS Online Evaluation System (platform.wpspublish.com). Upon purchase, an online activation code including instructions will be emailed to you. A use is consumed when an Online Form is scored.
