THE THREE PRONGS OF ELIGIBILITY
•CRITERIA
•IMPACT
•NEED
GUIDING PRINCIPLE
“There is no single behavior that is
always typical of Autism and no
behavior that would automatically
exclude an individual child from a
diagnosis of Autism.” (NRC)
PREPONDERANCE OF EVIDENCE
(Dave Schoemer)
ELIGIBILITY VS DIAGNOSIS
COMPONENTS OF
HIGH QUALITY EVALUATIONS
• REED
• Evaluation Components
• Determination of Eligibility
• Evaluation Report
• IEP
EVALUATION COMPONENTS
• Teacher / Building Staff Interviews
• Parent / Family Interviews & Home Visit
• Observations Across Settings
• Standardized Assessment Domain
Considerations
Making a Final Decision
• Preponderance of Evidence
• No one behavior includes or excludes
any specific eligibility area:
– There are always going to be instances that don’t fit
the criteria!!
– MUST explain what does not align
– MUST build a case for your conclusion
– However & Despite
• Intelligent People can Disagree!!
