WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Voluntary Regulation Scale in Adolescents, EATQ-R Test

Adolescent Voluntary Regulation Scale (EATQ-R) Test - Symptoms and Signs

self-regulation
structure of temperament

This brief measure assesses adolescents’ voluntary regulation, including self-control and attentional control across everyday contexts. The Adolescent Voluntary Regulation Scale (EATQ-R) is designed for use in clinical, school, and research settings to inform understanding of regulation-related strengths and difficulties.

It consists of 16 items and typically takes about 3 minutes to complete. Self-report and parent-report versions may be used to integrate perspectives across informants. The Adolescent Voluntary Regulation Scale (EATQ-R) (Samuel A. Putnam) can support case formulation and treatment planning by helping clinicians identify areas for targeted intervention and monitoring over time.
