Seo, Hyojeong; Shogren, Karrie A.; Little, Todd D.; Thompson, James R.; Wehmeyer, Michael L. – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2016
This study examined the convergent validity of the "Supports Intensity Scale-Adult Version" (SIS-A; Thompson et al., 2015a) and "Supports Intensity Scale-Children's Version" (SIS-C; Thompson et al., 2016a). Data from SISOnline (n = 129,864) for the SIS-A and from the SIS-C standardization sample (n = 4,015) were used for…

Shogren, Karrie A.; Wehmeyer, Michael L.; Seo, Hyojeong; Thompson, James R.; Schalock, Robert L.; Hughes, Carolyn; Little, Todd D.; Palmer, Susan B. – Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, 2017
This study compared the reliability, validity, and measurement properties of the "Supports Intensity Scale-Children's Version" (SIS-C) in children with autism and intellectual disability (n = 2,124) and children with intellectual disability only (n = 1,861). The results suggest that SIS-C is a valid and reliable tool in both populations.…
