Accurate diagnosis of ADHD is oftendifficult because nearly 80% ofADHDchildren behave well in the doctor'soffice. Forthis reason, physicians relyheavily on feedback from external
sources in diagnosing, medicating, and monitor-ing children with attention disorders.
ACTeRS is a standardized teacher rating form forgrades K-8 that objectively measures four sepa-rate characteristics: Attention, Hyperactivity, So-cial Skills, and Oppositional Behavior. The reliabil-ity, validity, and utility of ACTeRS have beenrepeatedly demonstrated in published studies andclinical trials throughout its 20-year research his-tory. Teachers respond to the 24 items that de-scribe classroom behavior. These ratings aresummed and transferred to a separate ProfileForm where norm comparisons are read directly.The new ACTeRS: Parent Form helps improvediagnostic accuracy by offering objective infor-mation from parents. Parent observations, com-bined with the teacher's perspective, provide amore complete representation of the child's over-all behavior. Similar in presentation to ACTeRS,the parentform measuresthe samefourfactorsasthe teacher's form. By enhancing the core ques-tions with additional descriptive information, theform helps parents make accurate, informed ob-servations about their children.
