Usually, the term \u2018screening\u2019 is used for a test\/tool that is used for people with no suspicion of a condition to detect the possibility of that condition. Here, under the heading of screening,\u00a0 some tests\/tools are being described that may help a practitioner decide whether or not to refer a child, who may be presenting with developmental concerns, for a detailed assessment of autism. These tests are not a substitute for a clinical assessment and their scores must not be used to establish a diagnosis.<\/p>\n
