The POSI was created as one part of a comprehensive screening instrument designed for pediatric primary care. It is a brief questionnaire that screens for autism traits. Items for the POSI were selected by a team of experts who reviewed existing assessment instruments and relevant research literature. The POSI is a parent reported paper questionnaire that takes less than 5 minutes to complete. Questions were modeled after the M-CHAT with two additions.
