Follow the steps to accurately fill out the Vanderbilt Score online.
- Press the ‘Get Form’ button to access and open the Vanderbilt Score form in your preferred online editor.
- Begin with the parent or teacher assessment scale. Identify the symptom assessment section, which screens for both inattentive and hyperactive ADHD symptoms. You will find questions divided into two segments; items 1–9 for inattentive symptoms and items 10–18 for hyperactive symptoms.
- For each question in these segments, indicate the frequency of symptoms based on the provided scale. A score of 2 or 3 reflects often-occurring behaviors.
- Record the number of positive responses for symptoms in both segments — you need at least 6 positive scores from either the inattentive or hyperactive sections to consider potential ADHD.
- Next, proceed to the performance section which contains items designed to measure impairment. Review questions numbered 48–55 and check the frequency of issues. A score of 4 or 5 indicates a performance problem.
- Document the number of performance questions that received a score of 4 or 5 in the appropriate area of the form.
- Calculate your Average Performance Score by summing the scores you marked and dividing by the number of performance criteria you answered.
- For assessments of comorbid conditions (oppositional-defiant, conduct, and anxiety/depression), complete the relevant sections by following the same procedure: record responses and calculate score requirements as indicated.
- Finally, review all your entries for accuracy, then save changes, download, print, or share the completed form as necessary.

The ADHD Rating Scale-5 has been validated in children age 5 through 17 years [30]. The Vanderbilt rating scales were not designed for preschool children but can be used in children ≥4 years because the DSM-5/DSM 5-TR behavioral criteria for ADHD are the same for children age 4 through 17 years [1,2,31-33].
