  22. That is a very interesting idea. I really like that idea. As for diagnosis this is more for an IEP Individualized Eduaction Plan there are these series of tests that they give you they are called the W.I.A.T. test. I am not sure but I think they give you a test related to the DSM I could be wrong on that one though.
