Tools and method
Four areas and eighteen dimensions, questionnaires established in the literature, a common scale for reading them together.
Below the chart, in a dedicated strip, you will find the factors of the period: mood (PHQ-9), anxiety (GAD-7), social anxiety (LSAS), adjustment to the current situation (ADNM-20), tics (ATQ) and repetitive thoughts and behaviours (OCI-R). They can influence all the other answers and need to be read together with the profile. The document for the professional also keeps the technical twelve-axis view, with the scale anchored to each questionnaire's threshold.
Each dimension is worth 0 to 100 as a percentage of the maximum of the answers that concern it, calculated on the subscales and items of the questionnaires that feed it. There are three bands, and they are descriptive, not diagnostic: low band up to 40, intermediate between 40 and 60, high above 60. The validated thresholds of the individual questionnaires do not disappear: they remain in the text and in the document for the professional.
Each pathway shows values only for the areas it explores: the ADHD pathway the blue slice, the Autism pathway the purple one, the AuDHD pathway high sensitivity as well, the Full Spectrum all four. The other areas stay grey and for them the document reports only any signals that emerged from the questionnaires completed, as a pointer for deciding whether to look further. A dimension that has not been assessed stays empty and is never treated as zero.
One caveat always goes with the chart: the overall shape also depends on the order of the dimensions. That is why the value of each individual dimension is what needs to be read.
The clinician reads the questionnaires aloud and enters the answers, with the person present. In the online pathways some questionnaires are completed by the person on their own, through a protected personal link, with a clarification available for every question; the final document states this, because it differs from guided administration. Every pathway looks at the whole palette: besides the questionnaires of the starting hypothesis it includes a cross-cutting map of the spectrum and state factors, such as mood and anxiety, that can shift every score. The session starts with the screenings; when one goes above its threshold, the platform suggests the full test for the same area. An interrupted session can be resumed, tests can be added later, and different sessions for the same person can be compared.
Once the session is closed, the answers are locked: every correction requires a reason and keeps the original value.
For every instrument the platform shows the raw score, the threshold used (including when it differs by sex), a note for the professional and a plain-language text for feedback. The final document for the person is designed to be read and kept: no technical jargon, the four-area profile with its dimensions, one sentence per band, and the comments and signature of the responsible professional.
Every person is identified by a code. First name, surname, date of birth and contact details are encrypted and kept separate from the assessment data; they can only be viewed by stating a reason, and every viewing is recorded in the access log. Researchers work exclusively on pseudonymised data. Access requires personal credentials and, for the most sensitive roles, a second authentication factor. The data are stored on servers in the European Union.
In the NeuroCoaching section the psychologist records cycles, sessions and goals and chooses the worksheets for home from a catalogue linked to the dimensions of the profile. The platform sorts them by relevance, shows the cautions and prepares the session PDF; it never assigns or adapts anything on its own. Learn more
