Teacher Questionnaire on First-Grade Student Adaptation Test - Symptoms and Signs

This teacher-report measure supports systematic observation of early school adjustment in first-grade students. The Teacher Questionnaire on First-Grade Student Adaptation is intended to help identify areas of relative strength and difficulty during the transition into the classroom setting.

The questionnaire includes 46 items and typically requires about 9 minutes to complete. Items focus on day-to-day functioning at school, including behavioral regulation, peer interaction, emotional comfort, and adjustment to classroom routines; responses can help inform follow-up discussion and planning for supports.

When used alongside direct observation and other sources of information, the Teacher Questionnaire on First-Grade Student Adaptation can contribute to a clearer description of student needs and classroom climate. Authors: Thomas M. Achenbach and Constance R. Kamphaus.
