ASRS v1.1/WHO 2005: Part A 6 items, item-specific thresholds, positive≥4
Screening for adult ADHD. The six-item Part A must be distinguished from the 18-item questionnaire and the diagnostic interview. A positive result indicates a need for clinical assessment; the recalibration sample and the Portuguese adaptation do not automatically validate this implementation in all languages.
Conditions of use
Check the population, units, inclusion and exclusion criteria, and version in the original source. A result alone does not establish a diagnosis, discharge decision or prescription.
