Barkley ADHD Rating Scale

The Barkley ADHD Rating Scale is a standardized questionnaire used by healthcare professionals to assess symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in children and adults. It asks about behaviors related to inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity, usually from both parents and teachers. The scale helps identify the severity and frequency of symptoms, providing valuable information for diagnosing ADHD and planning treatment. It’s a useful tool for capturing real-world behaviors over time and across different settings, contributing to a comprehensive understanding of an individual’s challenges.
