The Achenbach System of Empirically Based Assessment (ASEBA)
offers a comprehensive approach to assessing adaptive and maladaptive functioning.
The ASEBA assessment
Developed through decades of research and practical experience to identify actual patterns of functioning, the ASEBA assesses competencies, strengths, adaptive functioning, and behavioral, emotional, and social problems from age 1½ to over 90 years.
ASEBA instruments clearly document clients’ functioning in terms of both quantitative scores and individualised descriptions in respondents’ own words. Descriptions include what concerns respondents most about the clients, the best things about clients, and details of competencies and problems that are not captured by quantitative scores alone.
The individualised descriptive data, plus competence, strengths, adaptive, and problem scores, facilitate comprehensive, in-depth assessment. Numerous studies demonstrate significant associations between ASEBA scores and both diagnostic and special-education classifications.
The ASEBA approach involves
- Rating problems reported for large samples of children, adolescents, and adults.
- Performing multivariate statistical analyses of correlations among the ratings to identify syndromes of problems that tend to co-occur.
- Using ratings of skills and involvement in activities, social relations, school, and work to assess competencies and adaptive functioning.
- Constructing profiles of scales on which to display individuals’ scores in relation to norms for their age, gender, and relevant societies.
ASEBA Assessments
The preschool forms:
Child Behavior Checklist for ages 1.5-5 (CBCL 1.5-5)
Caregiver-Teacher Report Form for ages 1.5-5 (C-TRF 1.5-5)
CBCL 1.5-5 forms obtain parents’, daycare providers’, and teachers’ ratings of 99 problem items plus descriptions of problems, disabilities, what concerns respondents most about the child, and the best things about the child.
An especially valuable feature of the CBCL 1.5-5 is the Language Development Survey (LDS), which uses parents’ reports to assess children’s expressive vocabularies and word combinations, as well as risk factors for language delays.

The adult-age forms:
Adult Self-Report (ASR), a self-report form completed by the Adult to report their own adaptive functioning, problems, and substance use
Adult Behavior Checklist (ABCL), completed by people who know the adult.
The ASR and ABCL are especially valuable for assessing parents of children seen for mental health and family therapy services.
By having parents complete ASRs to describe themselves and ABCLs to describe their partner, you obtain profiles that highlight crucial agreements and disagreements between parents’ self-descriptions and other people’s descriptions of their functioning. You can also compare parents’ ASR and ABCL profiles with their children’s ASEBA profiles.

The Older Adult-age forms:
Older Adult Self-Report (OASR), obtains older adults’ self-reports of diverse aspects of adaptive functioning and problems.
Older Adult Behavior Checklist (OABCL), a parallel form to the OASR for obtaining reports from people who know the adult well.
The Older Adult forms, OASR and OABCL, can greatly improve assessment in a variety of contexts, including psychiatric and psychological evaluations; medical care; assessments following significant life changes, such as loss of a loved one or a move to an assisted living environment; and evaluations before and after planned changes and interventions.
Cross-informant comparisons make it easy to see similarities and differences between self-reports and reports by other people
It is especially helpful to have forms completed at regular intervals, such as 2 months, to determine whether functioning is improving, worsening, or stable.

Interview/Test Observation Materials
Ability and achievement tests pose significant challenges for children.
The TOF is a standardised form for rating observations of behavior, affect, and test-taking style during testing sessions for children aged 2 to 18.
The TOF includes 125 items for rating children’s problems during individual ability and achievement testing. Each item is rated on a 4-point scale. The TOF Profile displays raw scale scores and T scores for ages 2 to 18.
The TOF may only be hand-scored.

For normed multi-informant assessment of children’s functioning & responses to interventions (RTIs)
The BPM’s Internalizing (INT), Attention Problems (ATT), Externalizing (EXT), and Total Problems (TOT) scales comprise items from the Child Behavior Checklist for Ages 6-18 (CBCL/6-18), Teacher’s Report Form (TRF), and Youth Self-Report (YSR).
Frequent brief assessments are often needed to evaluate responses to interventions designed to reduce problems and improve adaptive functioning.
Because children’s behavior often varies from one context and interaction partner to another, brief assessments should compare data from multiple informants. The BPM-Parent (BPM-P), BPM-Teacher (BPM-T), and BPM-Youth (BPM-Y) enable users to obtain parallel parent, teacher, and self-ratings.

The SCICA maximises the value of interviews with a flexible user-friendly protocol, plus forms on which interviewers rate their observations and children’s self-reports during the interview.
The SCICA Protocol provides open-ended questions covering children’s activities and school performance, peer relations, family relations, self perceptions, feelings, and parent/teacher-reported problems.
Interviewers rate the child on the SCICA Observation and Self-Report Forms.
The SCICA may only be hand-scored.
