Autism scoring systems are vital tools for diagnosing, understanding, and supporting individuals on the autism spectrum, enabling the development of tailored interventions and strategies. These tools, ranging from diagnostic assessments like ADOS and ADI-R to functional tools like SRS and VABS, provide valuable insights into an individual’s social, communication, and adaptive functioning. When interpreted correctly, they help educators, therapists, families, and employers design customized programs that foster inclusion, skill-building, and job-readiness. Moving away from score-based labeling, these systems should be used as a foundation for strength-based, individualized support plans, ensuring neurodivergent individuals are empowered to live fulfilling, independent lives. The ethical use and collaborative approach in employing these tools can bridge gaps in education, employment, and daily living, creating a more inclusive society for all.
