Alberta Child ADHD Test
Answer the questions below to see if your child might be suffering from Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.
Instructions: This questionnaire is designed to determine whether your child demonstrates symptoms similar to those of children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and is intended to be used as a screening tool; it is not diagnostic. If your answers indicate that your child's symptoms are consistent with the DSM-5 criteria for ADHD, consult your family doctor and/or a psychologist who is trained and experienced in completing assessments for ADHD in children.
An accurate diagnosis can only be made through clinical evaluation by a trained mental health professional.
A modified version of the SNAP-IV 26-item scale was used to create this online test. The SNAP-IV 26-item scale is an abbreviated version of the Swanson, Nolan, and Pelham (SNAP) Questionnaire (Swanson, 1992; Swanson et al., 1983).
