The Pediatric Behavior Rating Scale (PBRS) is a standardised, norm-referenced parent and teacher rating scale that aids with identification of symptoms associated with early onset bipolar disorder, in children and adolescents from 3-18 years of age.
The multi-informant approach allows clinicians to evaluate a child’s or an adolescent’s symptoms and behavioural characteristics both at home and at school, helping determine if a child displays a higher rate of mood instability and aggression in one environment.
