Samenvatting	The Autism Spectrum Quotient (AQ) is a brief self- or observer-report measure of autism-spectrum traits in adolescents and adults. Developed by Simon Baron-Cohen and colleagues in 2001, the original 50-item version (AQ-50) quantifies propensity toward autism across five domains: social skills, attention to detail, attention switching, communication, and imagination. The 10-item version (AQ-10) serves as a rapid screening tool. The AQ is not diagnostic but identifies individuals who warrant formal autism evaluation.	The RCADS is a 47-item (or 25-item brief version) self-report measure that assesses the full spectrum of anxiety disorders and major depression in children and adolescents ages 6–18 years. Developed by Bruce Chorpita in 2000, it provides six subscale scores aligned with DSM-IV diagnostic criteria: Separation Anxiety, Generalized Anxiety, Panic Disorder, Social Phobia, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, and Major Depressive Disorder. The RCADS is designed to be both a screening tool and a diagnostic aid.
