The following table lists the mean results for the importance mean for each of the following eight skills and abilities. The importance mean is on a 1-5 scale. The ASD performance mean is on a 0-4 scale. Dividing the importance mean by 5 to yield an “importance factor” and multiplying this factor by the ASD mean calculate the combined score. This serves to adjust ASD’s performance mean by the perceived importance of each factor.
