Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) 6-18 Manual

The Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) School Age 6-18 obtains ratings from three different respondents/informants:

1. The CBCL 6-18 is completed by parents and others who see the children in home-like settings. It obtains parents' reports of children's competencies & problems.
2. The TRF 6-18 is completed by teachers and other school staff who have known the child in school settings for at least 2 months. It obtains teachers' ratings of many of the problems rated on the CBCL 6-18, plus additional items appropriate for teachers.
3. The YSR 11-18 is completed by 11-18 year olds to describe their own functioning. It has most of the same competence & problem items as the CBCL 6-18, and open-ended responses to items covering physical problems, concerns, and strengths.
