SEARS Summary Profile - Adolescent (pkg 25)

The Social Emotional Assets and Resilience Scales (SEARS) measures social-emotional competencies of children from 5-18 years of age with a multiple-perspective approach. It can be used to assess positive social-emotional attributes of children and adolescents, and is closely tied to the positive psychology movement.

It includes separate assessment forms for children (ages 8 to 12 years or Grades 3 to 6) and for adolescents (ages 13 to 18 years or Grades 7 to 12), as well as teacher report forms and parent report forms. The forms may be used for any combination of student, parent, and teacher assessment.

Separate short forms (12 items each) are also available, which are practical for repeated assessment (i.e., progress monitoring) or class- or school-wide screening of students.

The SEARS Summary Profile - Adolescent is used to construct the profile for the SEARS Adolescent. The examiner will transfer the scale and total raw scores and T score obtained from the Adolescent Form onto the Profile Form. On the reverse side, a Percentile Profile can be generated.
