This measure is designed to evaluate everyday behavioral indicators that may reflect individual differences in nervous system functioning and temperament in school-aged children. The Assessment of Behavioral Manifestations of Nervous System Properties is typically completed by an adult informant (e.g., parent or teacher) based on routine observations rather than child self-report. It contains 30 items and takes about 6 minutes to complete.
Item content generally targets observable features such as stress tolerance, speed of responding and shifting between activities, emotional stability, and temperament-related behavioral tendencies. Scoring can be used to summarize patterns of behavior to inform clinical or school-based understanding and to support planning for individualized accommodations or interventions. The Assessment of Behavioral Manifestations of Nervous System Properties has been attributed to Hans J. Eysenck and Jeffrey A. Gray.
