ADHD rating scale-5 for children and adolescents: Checklists, norms, and clinical interpretation


ADHD rating scale-5 for children and adolescents: Checklists, norms, and clinical interpretation is a 124-page guide for mental, educational, and medical practitioners to screen, diagnose, and evaluate treatment for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Meant to determine the frequency and severity of ADHD symptoms in children ages 5-17, this assessment includes complete instructions for scoring and interpretation for both boys and girls separately.

The test offers parent questionnaires in both English and Spanish and cover behavior seen at home and teacher questionnaires cover classroom behavior. It is keyed to the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for ADHD to offer the most up-to-date results, and photocopy permission is included for continual use without having to purchase additional forms. This new edition includes functional impairment items linked to each symptom dimension (inattention symptoms and hyperactive-impulsive symptoms) and full analysis of the revised scale's psychometric properties.
