Description

The Psychoeducational Profile: TEACCH Individualized Psychoeducational Assessment for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders – Third Edition (PEP-3; Schopler, Lansing, Reichler, & Marcus, 2005) is the most current version of an assessment developed by professionals at TEACCH to evaluate the skills and behaviors of 2- to 7- year-old children with suspected autism spectrum disorders. Similar to its predecessors, the PEP-3 was designed to (a) measure developmental strengths, weaknesses, and learning style to inform educational programming; (b) assist in the autism diagnostic process by obtaining information from caregivers and by providing opportunities to observe social, communication, and play behaviors; and (c) provide developmental ages and other scores for diagnostic decision-making, educational planning, and/or assessing change in behavior and development over time. As such, the PEP-3 has utility in clinical, educational, and research contexts.
