Achenbach Youth Self-Report/Evidence
Method evidence record

Achenbach Youth Self-Report

The Youth Self-Report (YSR), developed by Thomas Achenbach and Leslie Rescorla, is a youth-completed behavioral rating form assessing emotional and behavioral problems in adolescents aged 11–18 years. Part of the Achenbach System of Empirically Based Assessment (ASEBA), the YSR parallels the parent-completed Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) and teacher-completed Teacher Report Form (TRF), enabling comprehensive multi-informant assessment of adolescent mental health and functioning.
