WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Adult ADHD Diagnostic Scale, ASRS Test

Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS) Test

This measure is a brief self-report screening tool for adult attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms. The Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS) is intended to support initial symptom identification and inform whether further clinical evaluation is warranted.

The questionnaire consists of 18 items and typically takes about 4 minutes to complete. Respondents rate the frequency of common difficulties associated with inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity in everyday functioning. Results from the Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS) should be interpreted as an indicator of symptom burden rather than a diagnostic determination and are best considered alongside clinical interview and collateral information when available.
