Cette
étude a mené une revue systématique de la littérature occidentale et
internationale pour examiner les mesures utilisées pour évaluer les
connaissances sur le trouble du spectre de l'autisme et a identifié 44 mesures uniques de connaissances dans 67 études menées dans 21 pays. Les mesures utilisées dans chaque étude ont été évaluées en termes de force psychométrique. Sur
les 67 études examinées, seulement 7% ont été évaluées comme utilisant
une mesure avec un soutien psychométrique fort par rapport à 45% qui ont
été évalués comme utilisant une mesure sans soutien psychométrique
rapporté. .

Abstract
Autism
spectrum disorder-specific knowledge deficits contribute to current
disparities in the timing and quality of autism spectrum disorder
services throughout the United States and globally. This study conducted
a systematic review of Western and International literature to examine
measures used to assess autism spectrum disorder knowledge. This review
identified 44 unique autism spectrum disorder knowledge measures across
67 studies conducted in 21 countries. Measures used in each study were
evaluated in terms of psychometric strength. Of the 67 studies reviewed,
only 7% were rated as using a measure with strong psychometric support
compared to 45% that were rated as using a measure with no reported
psychometric support. Additionally, we examined content overlap and
subdomains of autism spectrum disorder knowledge assessed (e.g.
etiology, symptoms) and cross-cultural adaptation procedures utilized in
the field. Based on these findings, the need for a cross-culturally
valid and psychometrically sound measure of autism spectrum disorder
knowledge is discussed and recommendations for improving current
assessment methods are presented, including suggestions for measure
subdomains.
