Adult ADHDScreener Results
The Symptom Checklist is an instrument consisting of the eighteen DSM-IV-TR criteria. Six of the eighteen
questions were found to be the most predictive of symptoms consistent with ADHD. These six questions are the
basis for the ASRS v1.1 Screener and are also Part A of the Symptom Checklist. Part B of the Symptom
Checklist contains the remaining twelve questions. The Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS-v1.1) Symptom
Checklist was developed in conjunction with the World Health Organization (WHO), and the Workgroup on Adult
ADHD.
Section A: 3
A score of 4 or more indicates that "the patient has symptoms highly consistent with ADHD in adults and further
investigation is warranted". Only a clinician can diagnosis ADHD.
Section B: 6
Your results for section B are not used directly in diagnosis but are instead used to help inform the conversation
with your clinician.
This is a self-reporting tool originally designed in conjunction with the World Health Organisation and the
Workgroup on Adult ADHD.
