The National Trust for the Welfare of Persons with Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Mental Retardation and Multiple Disabilities Act, 1999 provides for the constitution of National Trust for the welfare of this class of persons with disabilities. Thus the guidelines for evaluation of various disabilities and procedure for certification notified by the Ministry on 1.06.2001 covers only the categories of disabilities identified in the PwD Act and do not cover certification of Autism. The State Governments on this reasonable ground are not issuing Disability Certificate to persons with autism.

2. In order to frame guidelines for evaluation and assessment of Autism and procedure for certification, as given in the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare’s O.M. (F.No. Z-28020/106/2014-CH-RBSK) dated 9 th July, 2014 and to recommend appropriate modifications/alternations keeping in view Persons with Disabilities (Equal Opportunities Protection of Rights and Full Participation) Act, 1995, the Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment, Government of India has developed Guidelines for Assessment of Autism for the purposes of issuance of disability certificate in consultation with Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.

3. Definition: Autism Spectrum Disorder is a lifelong neurological condition typically appearing in the first three years of life that is marked by pervasive impairments in the areas of social skills and communication; often associated with hyper-or-hypo-reactivity to sensory input; unusual interest of stereotypical rituals, or behaviours; and may or may not be accompanied by intellectual impairment.

4. For identification of Autism cases the INCLEN tools shall be used. INCLEN Tools for identification of autism cases is at Annexure A.

5. The Indian Scale of Assessment of Autism has been developed which provides the detailed assessment procedure and tools for assessing the extent of disability for persons with autism beyond 6 years of age. The Indian scale for assessment of autism is at Annexure B. Certification of disability for persons with autism may be carried out by a Autism Certification Medical Board, duly constituted by the Central Government or the State Government, comprising of members from the following fields:

1. Clinical Psychologist/Rehabilitation Psychologist

2. A Psychiatrist

3. A Paediatrician or General Physician as the case may be The State Governments are, therefore, requested to constitute the Autism Certification Medical Board immediately.

6. Based on the identification of cases of Autism in terms of INCLEN tools, certification of Autism on the basis of ISAA tools shall be issued. The Proforma for issuance of Certificate of Disability of Persons with Autism shall be as per Annexure C. The certificate would be valid for a period of 5 years for those whose disability is temporary and are below the age 18 years. For those who acquire permanent disability, the validity can be shown as “Permanent” in the certificate.

7. The Director General of Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare shall be the final authority, should there arise any controversy/doubt regarding the interpretation of the definition/classification/evaluation test etc.

Details of the Annexures appended to the guidelines are as under:

Additional note and observation during the interview Name of the Assessor Signature of the Assessor Date of Assessment Annexure-B INDIAN SCALE FOR ASSESSMENT OF AUTISM Purpose The purpose of developing an Indian Scale for Assessment of Autism (ISAA) was to assess persons with Autism for issuance of disability certificate Description of the Scale Indian Scale for Assessment of Autism is a rating scale comprising of 40 test items grouped under 6 domains:

I. Social Relationship and Reciprocity Persons with Autism generally remain aloof, socially withdrawn and do not interact with other people. They have difficulty in understanding another person’s feelings, such as pain or sorrow. They have problems in maintain eye contact and do not develop age appropriate peer relationships.

II. Emotional Responsiveness Individuals with Autism do not show the expected feelings in a social situation. Emotional reactions are unrelated to the situation and may show anxiety or fear which is excessive in nature without apparent reason.

They may show inappropriate emotional response.

¹Hkkx Iµ[k.M 1º Hkkjr dk jkti=k % vlk/kj.k 33 III. Speech – Language and Communication Individuals with Autism have problems in speech development. They find it difficult to express their needs verbally and non-verbally and may also have difficulty in understanding the non verbal language of others.

People with Autism often have echolalia and may repeat a word, phrase or sentence out of context.

IV. Behaviour Patterns Persons with Autism may engage in self-stimulatory behavior in the form of flapping hands and using an object for this purpose. They insist on following routines and may resist change. Some Autistic children may be restless and exhibit aggressive behavior.

V. Sensory Aspects Persons with Autism are usually sensitive to sensory stimuli. A majority of them are either hypo or hyper sensitive to light, sound, smell and other external stimulation. Some Autistic children explore their environment by smelling, touching or tasting objects.

VI. Cognitive Component Individuals with Autism may lack attention and concentration. They do not respond to instructions promptly or respond after a considerable delay. Some of them may have special or unusual ability known as savant ability in some areas like mathematics, music, memory and artistic abilities.

Instructions for Test Administration USAA must be administered under standard testing conditions and testing methods as given below:

a) Testing conditions The examiner should be sensitive to the person’s physiological conditions arising out of hunger, sleep and state changes. Testing should be avoided when the person is indisposed or unduly distressed.

b) Method of assessment Assessment involves:

i. Observation ii. Informant/parent interview iii. Testing c) Test materials Appropriate material and activities are to be used to elicit responses from individuals with autism during assessment. The Kit should comprise the following items:

ITEMS

1. Car 13. Watch

2. Ball (different types) 14. Hand bell

3. Doll (different types) 15. Paper and crayons/colour Pencils

4. Rattle 16. Blocks

5. Picture book 17. Squeezer – Cat/Dog

6. Peg board with rings 18. Apple/Banana/Orange/Vegetables

7. Sorting board 19. Box

8. Cup 20. Bottle and pellets

9. Spoon 21. Mirror

10. Beads with a string 22. Shape sorter

11. Colour card/Board 23. Slide with rolling ball

12. Key 24. Musical toys 34 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : EXTRAORDINARY [PART I—SEC. 1] a) Testing time Time required for testing will vary according to the complexity of test items and subject’s alacrity in responding. Assessment of persons with Autism using ISAA may take up to one hour.

Scoring system ISAA should be scored as per the scoring system given below.

Each of the 40 test items is to be rated on 5 categories, out of which one is to be checked. These are further quantified by providing percentages to indicate the frequency, degree and intensity of behavioral characteristics that are observed. The categories along with the percentage are assigned as follows:

Rarely (Up to 20%) indicates that the person exhibits this behavior pattern for up to 20% of the time. This score is normal for their age and socio-educational background – Score 1 Sometimes (21% - 40%) indicates that the person exhibits this behavior pattern for 21% - 40% of the time. Some of these behaviours may be a cause for attention and concern, but by and large they may be considered within normal limits for their age and socio-educational background.

Person is completely independent in activities in daily life – Score 2 Frequently (41 – 60%) indicates that the person exhibits this behavior pattern for 41 – 60% of the time. These behaviours occur with such frequency and regularity that they interfere with the persons’ functioning in daily life.

Behavior at this level will be definitely disabling.

Person may be able to perform activities of daily life with minimum assistance – Score 3 Mostly (61-80%) indicates that the person exhibits this behavior pattern for 61-80% of the time. The given behavior may occur without any discernible stimulus. The behavior under consideration occurs so regularly that it significantly hampers the person in performing daily activities.

Person needs assistance in activities of daily life – Score 4 Always (81-100%) indicates that the person exhibits this behavior pattern almost all the time, so much so that it would be considered a major handicap. The behavior is seldom appropriate to the given situation.

Person is completely dependent on activities of daily life – Score 5 The minimum score that can be obtained is 40.

The maximum score that can be obtained is 200.

Operational Definition of ISAA items

1. SOCIAL RELATIONSHIP AND RECIPROCITY

Keep all the objects and check if the child shows attachment to inanimate objects. This can be seen if he likes to play with one object consistently and seems very much attached to it and shows resistance and temper tantrums when that object is taken away.

34. Has unusual vision Persons with Autism may be able to observe tiny details which may not be apparent to others. Such individuals focus their attention on some insignificant part of an object that is generally ignored by others.

Ask the child to put the pegs on the board and sort the pieces and put them in their right places on the sorting board or fill the bottle with the beads or string the beads in a twine. Check if the child can attend and concentrate on the task.

38. Delayed response time Persons with Autism do not respond to instructions promptly or respond after considerable delay. Quick response to instructions is hardly even to be expected.
