What is the TONI-4 test?

TONI-4 (Test of Nonverbal Intelligence) is a tool used to assess nonverbal intelligence.

It is especially helpful for individuals who:
🍍have communication difficulties,
🍍have delayed speech development,
🍍 use a different language,
🍍are unable to complete traditional tests that require verbal responses.

During the assessment, the person selects answers based on pictures and patterns, allowing cognitive abilities to be evaluated without the need for speech.

TONI-4 helps to understand a child’s potential in a way that is tailored to their abilities.

What is the Stanford-Binet 5 test?

The Stanford-Binet 5 (SB5) is one of the most commonly used tools for assessing intellectual functioning in children, adolescents, and adults.

During the assessment, a specialist evaluates, among others:
🍍reasoning,
🍍 memory,
🍍 logical thinking,
🍍verbal and nonverbal abilities.

The results help to better understand a child’s strengths as well as areas that may require additional support. The test is an important part of diagnosing, among others, intellectual disabilities and giftedness.

Diagnosis is a comprehensive process that helps specialists better understand a child’s development, strengths, and areas that may require additional support.

It usually includes:
🧠 a detailed conversation with parents about the child’s development, behavior, and daily functioning,
🧩 assessment of the child’s cognitive functioning using standardized tools,
👧 observation of the child during structured tasks as well as free play,
📄 discussion of the results along with clear recommendations for further support and intervention.

Every child is unique, which is why the assessment process is always tailored individually, taking into account their needs, abilities, and developmental profile. The goal of diagnosis is not to label, but to better understand the child and provide them with the most appropriate support.

When should you consider an assessment?

It’s worth consulting a specialist if your child:
🍍 develops more slowly than their peers,
🍍has difficulty learning new skills or remembering new information,
🍍needs significantly more time to complete everyday tasks,
🍍 struggles with concentration, problem-solving, or following instructions,
🍍 experiences challenges in preschool or school, such as keeping up with the group or adapting to routines.

Every child develops at their own pace, but when difficulties persist or begin to affect daily functioning, it can be helpful to seek professional guidance.

An assessment is not about labeling a child. Its purpose is to better understand their strengths and needs, and to plan appropriate support that will help them thrive.

Intellectual disability involves challenges not only in learning, but also in everyday functioning, communication, and independence. It can affect how a child understands information, solves problems, interacts with others, and manages daily activities appropriate for their age.

Every child develops at their own pace, but if you notice ongoing difficulties with learning, problem-solving, communication, or completing everyday tasks, it may be helpful to consult a specialist. Early signs can sometimes include delays in speech, difficulties following instructions, or challenges in adapting to new situations.

Early recognition of a child’s needs allows for appropriate support, tailored interventions, and helps create the best possible conditions for their development and well-being

Have you noticed that your child struggles with communication, social interactions, adapting to change, or has strong reactions to sensory experiences?

Sometimes it can be difficult to know whether certain behaviors are part of typical development or signs that additional support may be helpful.

💡 Seeking an assessment is not about looking for a label—it's about gaining a better understanding of your child's needs and how to support them.

Can ADOS-2 diagnose autism on its own?

The answer is no.

ADOS-2 is one of the most important tools used in the assessment of Autism Spectrum Disorder, but it does not provide a diagnosis by itself.

A specialist considers many different sources of information, including parent interviews, developmental history, clinical observations, and the child's functioning across different situations and environments.

Every child is unique, which is why a comprehensive assessment is so important.

💙 A thorough diagnostic process aims to better understand a child's strengths, challenges, and support needs so that the right guidance and support can be provided.

What Happens During an ADOS-2 Assessment?

Many parents worry that an ADOS-2 assessment is like an exam that their child needs to prepare for or somehow "pass."

In reality, ADOS-2 is based on activities tailored to the child's age, developmental level, and abilities. These may include conversations, play-based activities, shared tasks, or other situations designed by the specialist.

🧩 The goal is not to judge or test the child. Instead, the specialist observes how the child communicates, interacts socially, responds to different situations, and uses play and imagination.

This helps build a better understanding of the child's unique way of experiencing and interacting with the world.

16/06/2026

ADOS-2 (Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, Second Edition) is one of the most widely used tools that supports the assessment of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). During the assessment, a specialist observes how a child communicates, interacts socially, plays, and responds in different situations.

The assessment is tailored to the child's age and developmental level, providing valuable insights into their everyday functioning. It's important to remember that ADOS-2 is not a test that a child can "pass" or "fail." Its purpose is not to evaluate performance, but to better understand how a child communicates and interacts with the world around them.

ADOS-2 is an important part of a comprehensive assessment process and helps specialists and parents better understand a child's strengths, needs, and areas where support may be beneficial.
