The Attention Deficit Disorder Evaluation Scale-Fifth Edition (ADDES-5) enables educators, school and private psychologists, paediatricians, and other medical personnel to evaluate Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder in children and youth from input provided by primary observers of the student’s behaviour - at home and in school.

The ADDES-5 was developed from research in behaviour disorders, learning disabilities, and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder; current literature in psychology, neurology, and education; and current DSM-5™ practices in identification and diagnosis. The sub scales, Inattentive and Hyperactive-Impulsive, are based on the current characteristics of ADHD. The results provided by the scale are commensurate with criteria used by educational, psychiatric, and paediatric professionals to identify Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder in children and youth. The scale is available in two versions: School Version, a reporting form for educators, and Home Version, a reporting form for parents.

Internal consistency, test-retest, and inter-rater reliability; item and factor analysis; and content, diagnostic, criterion-related, and construct validity are documented and reported for the scale.

Characteristics and Components of the ADDES-5:

  • The ADDES-5 is based on the DSM-5 definition of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and the criteria most widely accepted by educators and mental health professionals.
  • The ADDES-5 School Version was standardised on a total of 4,829 students, including students identified with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder.
  • The standardisation population included students from 23 states and represented all geographic regions of the United States.
  • Factor analysis confirmed the two ADDES-5 sub scales.
  • The ADDES-5 provides separate norms for male and female students 5 through 17 years of age.
  • The School Version can be completed in approximately 15 minutes and includes 60 items easily observed and documented by educational personnel.
  • The Home Version can be completed by a parent or guardian in approximately 12 minutes and includes 46 items representing behaviours exhibited in and around the home environment.
  • The Pre-Referral Attention Deficit Checklist provides a format for identifying behaviours in need of intervention.
  • The Attention Deficit Disorder Intervention Manual includes IEP goals, objectives, and interventions for all 60 items on the School Version of the scale plus 90 additional behaviours.
  • The Parent’s Guide to Attention Deficit Disorder provides parents with specific, practical strategies to use in helping their child be more successful in the home environment.
  • The ADDES-5 Quick Score computer program converts raw scores to standard scores and percentiles which makes scoring efficient and convenient.
  • The optional Attention Deficit Disorder Intervention Manual computer program provides an individualised printout of goals, objectives, and specific interventions selected for a student and implemented by teachers or personnel in the school environment.
