High distortion
3 – 6: Low distortion | 7 – 11: Moderate distortion | 12 – 15: High distortion
A score of 7 falls in the Moderate distortion range, suggesting some tendency to present oneself favorably, so responses may be mildly influenced by social desirability.

Low
Moderate
High
4 – 12: Low | 13 – 15: Moderate | 16 – 20: High

WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment

Adolescent Responsibility Scale Test

responsibility

This measure is designed to assess perceived responsibility-related attitudes and behaviors in adolescents. The Adolescent Responsibility Scale is typically used to identify areas in which an individual reports taking ownership of obligations and following through across everyday contexts (Dishion). It consists of 27 items and generally takes about 5 minutes to complete.

Results are intended to support clinical or educational formulation by highlighting relative strengths and potential targets for skill-building or support, rather than serving as a stand-alone diagnostic indicator. The Adolescent Responsibility Scale may be used in screening or outcome monitoring when interpreted in conjunction with interview data, collateral information, and other relevant measures.
