Q:
What is the RTS Utility?
RTS is a utility to aid those customers who want to score data
they
have collected outside of ADM. An input file of data passes through
RTS. RTS produces scores in a scored data file. RTS can also produce
an
ADM Data Transfer file. The ADM Data Transfer file is used to
import
raw, unscored data into ADM.
Do
you have ASEBA item ratings stored in non-ADM files, such as SAS,
SPSS, SYSTAT, SQL, Access, or Excel? If so, do you want to compute
ASEBA scale scores from the item ratings? RTS can help you by
using the item ratings to compute raw scores, percentiles, and
T scores for current and legacy scales of all ASEBA forms except
the SCICA and DOF. Simply export your data to a file that RTS
will check for errors and then use for computing ASEBA scale scores.
Choose from various output types, including files for use by the
A2S utility, which prepares
scores for SPSS analyses. RTS can also export your item ratings
to ADM for storage and cross-informant comparisons.
What RTS is Not:
- NOT a substitute for ADM
- NOT an entry program ? Does NOT store data
- Does NOT produce profiles, narratives, or cross-informant
reports
- Does NOT produce cross-informant scores
- NOT a server-type application allowing simultaneous access
(allows one user at a time)
NOTE: ADM Multi-user License cannot be used with RTS
