תקציר	The Children's Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (CY-BOCS) is a 10-item clinician-administered semi-structured interview for assessing obsessive-compulsive symptoms in children and adolescents ages 6–17 years. Developed by Scahill, Riddle, and colleagues in 1997 as a child adaptation of the adult Y-BOCS, the CY-BOCS quantifies severity of obsessions and compulsions, insight, resistance, and functional impact. It is the gold-standard outcome measure in pediatric OCD research and clinical practice for diagnosis, severity rating, and treatment monitoring.	The RCADS is a 47-item (or 25-item brief version) self-report measure that assesses the full spectrum of anxiety disorders and major depression in children and adolescents ages 6–18 years. Developed by Bruce Chorpita in 2000, it provides six subscale scores aligned with DSM-IV diagnostic criteria: Separation Anxiety, Generalized Anxiety, Panic Disorder, Social Phobia, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, and Major Depressive Disorder. The RCADS is designed to be both a screening tool and a diagnostic aid.
