ASEBA CTRF

We have revised the Child Behavior Checklist/2-3 (CBCL/2-3) and Caregiver-Teacher Report Form (C-TRF) to span ages 1½-5. Using a new national normative sample and larger clinical samples, we derived the following cross-informant syndromes from both forms: Emotionally Reactive, Anxious/Depressed, Somatic Complaints, Withdrawn, Attention Problems, and Aggressive Behavior. We also derived a Sleep Problems syndrome from the CBCL/1½-5/LDS. In addition, Internalizing, Externalizing, and Total Problems scales are scored from both forms.

Our new Assessment Data Manager (ADM) Ages 1½-5 Module systematically compares up to eight preschool forms. The similar layouts of the CBCL/1½-5/LDS and C-TRF profiles help you compare multiple hand-scored profiles. Another new feature is a profile of DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual)-oriented scales, which comprise CBCL/1½-5/LDS and C-TRF items that experienced psychiatrists and psychologists from ten cultures rated as being very consistent with DSM diagnostic categories. The DSM-oriented scales are: Affective Problems, Anxiety Problems, Pervasive Developmental Problems, Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Problems, and Oppositional Defiant Problems.

The C-TRF obtains ratings by daycare providers and teachers on 99 items, plus descriptions of problems, disabilities, what concerns the respondent most about the child, and the best things about the child. Scales are based on ratings of 1,113 children and are normed on 1,192 children. Hand-scored and computer-scored profiles are available. The ADM Ages 1½-5 Module compares eight forms per child. New Spanish CBCL/1½-5/LDS forms are now available.
