ADHD Screening Assessment
What Is the Adult ADHD Screening Test?
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that can affect attention, organization, impulse control, and activity levels. While commonly diagnosed in childhood, ADHD symptoms can persist into adulthood and affect work, relationships, and daily functioning.
This adult ADHD screening questionnaire is inspired by commonly used clinical tools such as the Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS). It evaluates symptoms such as difficulty sustaining attention, problems organizing tasks, distractibility, and restlessness.
Each item reflects common behavioral patterns associated with ADHD. The total score helps estimate the likelihood and severity of ADHD-related symptoms.
Higher scores may suggest symptoms consistent with adult ADHD and may warrant a comprehensive professional assessment.
Screening tools like this are commonly used to identify individuals who may benefit from further evaluation by a qualified mental health professional.
What Does This Mean?
This score reflects the severity of symptoms based on your responses.
Early professional assessment can help clarify diagnosis and guide appropriate treatment options.
