ASEBA - Ages 18-59 Module

Adult Self-Report for Ages 18-59 (ASR)

Based on 15 years of research, the Adult Self-Report (ASR) incorporates many items of the 1997 editions of the Young Adult Self-Report (YASR), plus new items and new national norms that span ages 18-59.

Like the YASR, the profiles for scoring the ASR include normed scales for adaptive functioning, empirically based syndromes, substance use, Internalizing, Externalizing, and Total Problems. In addition, the ABCL profiles feature new DSM-oriented scales consisting of items that experts from 10 cultures identified as being very consistent with DSM-IV categories. The profiles also include a Critical Items scale consisting of items of particular concern to clinicians. The profiles display scale scores in relation to norms for each gender at ages 18-35 and 36-59, based on national probability samples.

The following cross-informant syndromes were derived:

• Anxious/Depressed
• Withdrawn
• Somatic Complaints
• Thought Problems
• Attention Problems
• Aggressive Behavior
• Rule-Breaking Behavior
• Intrusive

The ABCL and ASR have parallel Substance Use, Critical Items, Internalizing, Externalizing, and Total Problems scales. The DSM-oriented scales are:

• Depressive Problems
• Anxiety Problems
• Somatic Problems
• Avoidant Personality Problems
• Attention Deficity/Hyperactivity Problems
• Antisocial Personality Problems

The Assessment Data Manager (ADM) module for the ASR and ABCL can score profiles from both forms and can compare any combination of eight forms per subject. Hand-scored profiles are also available.
