However, many changes in the technological landscape have occurred since its development, thus creating a need for an updated scale. During the course of a three-part study, the ATCUS v. 2.0 was developed with psychometric properties similar to that of the original ATCUS.

The ATCUS v. 2.0 was found to have both high internal consistency, alpha = .83 and test–retest reliability, r = .93.
