• There are similar features between students who have failed clinical training and persons with Asperger's syndrome, which is one of the developmental disorders. In this study, we investigated whether failure in the clinical training could be caused by developmental disorders or a autistic tendency in students. We examined 44 physical therapy students using the Autism-Spectrum Quotient (AQ). The results of the AQ score showed significant differences between the students who had failed clinical training and those who had passed the clinical training session. This indicates that a student who shows autistic tendencies has a higher risk of failing clinical training. Furthermore, discriminant analysis showed that communication skills are the most important variable to assess whether a student will pass or fail clinical training. The AQ may be a useful test to predict students' ability to cope with matters and problems associated with clinical training.
