Youth self-report

Youth self-report is a method where young people provide information about themselves, often through questionnaires or interviews. It allows them to share their thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and experiences directly, rather than relying on teachers, parents, or clinicians to interpret what they observe. This approach is valuable because it captures the youth's personal perspective, especially about their mental health, social life, or habits. It is commonly used in research and clinical settings to better understand their unique experiences and guide appropriate support or interventions.
