Both the self- and observer-rating forms of the CAARS were used in this investigation; the two versions are identical except that they are normed separately. Finally, divergent validity was assessed by examining the rate at which item-level symptom counts and cluster T -scores in the clinical range for ADHD were also observed in other psychological disorders.
Participants generally reported greater symptomatology than did observers; this was reflected in a consistently higher frequency of DSM-IV symptom endorsement at the item-level, as well as in higher mean T -scores on all CAARS clusters.

A subset of adults underwent a thorough ADHD assessment by a doctoral-level clinician.

Correlations and kappa values were calculated using self- and observer-ratings of item-level symptoms; sensitivity, specificity, and discriminant validity of cluster scores in predicting clinician diagnoses were computed for participants.
The long forms are composed of 66 items on nine empirically derived scales. Prior to the interview patients complete CAADID Part I, a questionnaire that collects developmental information; information about academic, family, occupational, and personal functioning; and psychiatric history.

The sample included adults evaluated for attention problems. Having a substantial percentage of our sample who presented for assessment of attention problems, but who were ultimately determined to have disorders other than ADHD, also allowed us to explore the discriminant validity of the CAARS within a sample of high-risk adults in an outpatient setting.
As such, clinically-elevated T -scores on the CAARS clusters are relatively limited in the information they contribute to differentiating ADHD from other psychiatric disorders that commonly manifest in adulthood. This useful instrument provides both Self-Report and Observer Report Forms, permitting multimodal assessment of adults with attention problems. Both forms are available in long, short, and screening versions, all measuring a range of behaviors, including:.
The long forms are composed of 66 items on nine empirically derived scales. In addition, an Inconsistency Index alerts you to random or careless responding. These versions are ideal when time is limited.

For the Self-Report forms, norms are based on a sample of more than 1, nonclinical adults; for the Observer Report forms, norms are derived from ratings of nonclinical adults done by spouses, family members, and friends; all separated by age and ge.
