Pediatric Symptom Checklist-Youth (PSC-Y)

Welcome to the Pediatric Symptom Checklist (PSC). This questionnaire has 35 questions that can help you understand how your emotions, behavior, and attention have been lately. Answering these questions will help you discover if there are any areas you might want to talk about with an adult, like your parent, doctor, or therapist.

How to Complete the Pediatric Symptom Checklist

Take a moment to think about how you’ve been feeling and acting lately. For each question, pick the answer that best shows how often you’ve felt or acted this way:

  • Never
  • Sometimes
  • Often

This test asks about things like feeling sad, getting distracted easily, or having trouble doing your best in school. Your answers will help you and caring adults understand how you are doing and any support that might be needed.

Once you’re done with the questionnaire, you can click the “View Results” button at the bottom of the page to see your answers. If you’re unsure about any of the questions, you can always take the test again later.

After you finish, you can share your results with a parent, doctor, or therapist to talk about any answers that might need more attention.
