Achenbach System of Empirically Based Assessment

The Achenbach System of Empirically Based Assessment is a set of tools designed to evaluate the social, emotional, and behavioral functioning of children and adolescents. It includes questionnaires and checklists completed by parents, teachers, and the youth themselves. These assessments gather information about a child’s strengths and difficulties, allowing professionals to identify potential issues and track development over time. By using standardized methods, the system provides reliable insights that can guide interventions and support for the child’s well-being.
