Conners Rating Scales

The Conners Rating Scales are standardized questionnaires used to assess behavioral, emotional, and academic issues in children and adolescents, particularly related to Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Parents, teachers, and sometimes the child themselves complete these scales, providing insights into behaviors such as inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. The responses are then scored to identify and evaluate the severity of symptoms, helping clinicians and educators create effective support plans tailored to the child’s needs. The scales aid in understanding a child's challenges and strengths in various settings, ultimately informing treatment and intervention strategies.
