The first 9 items assess inattentive symptoms and the last 9 items assess hyperactive-impulsive symptoms. Scoring is based on a 4-point Likert-type severity scale: 0 = none, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe. Clinicians should score the highest score that is generated for the prompts for each item.

Clinicians can designate the severity of ADHD as mild, moderate or severe under the criteria in the DSM-5. Mild: Few symptoms beyond the required number for diagnosis are present, and symptoms result in minor impairment in social, school or work settings.

The Conners' Teacher Rating Scale (CTRS; Conners, 1969, 1997a, 1997b) is a commonly used measure of behavioral problems associated with ADHD, which originally was developed as a measure of behavioral change for pharmacological studies (Conners, 1969).
