Conners Comprehensive Behavior Rating Scales (CBRS)

The Conners Comprehensive Behavior Rating Scales (CBRS) is a large, multi-informant instrument used to gain a broad understanding or overview of a young person’s (6–18 years, 8–18 for self-report forms) behaviors, emotions, and academic and social profile.

The assessment covers a wide spectrum from a pathological perspective, including the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders: Fourth Edition (DSM-IV-TR™), Symptom scales, Content scales, Other Clinical Indicators, Critical items, and Impairment items.  It is divided into forms based on respondent: parent forms (Conners CBRS–P), teacher forms (Conners CBRS–T), self–report forms (Conners CBRS–SR), and an auxiliary scale, the Conners Clinical Index (Conners CI™).  It is available in paper or electronic format.  Spanish versions of parent and self-report forms are available.
