Ages & Stages Questionnaires®: Social-Emotional (ASQ®:SE-2): Questionnaires (English)

The ASQ:SE-2™ trade questionnaires are the most cost-effective, reliable way to screen young children for social-emotional issues in the first 6 years of life. Now in a NEW second edition, the 9 age-appropriate questionnaires (2, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 48, and 60 months) effectively screen 7 key social-emotional areas: self-regulation, compliance, adaptive functioning, autonomy, affect, social-communication, and interaction with people.

What's New in ASQ:SE-2:
ASQ:SE-2 questionnaires are better than ever, with helpful new features like:

• New 2 month questionnaire: Reliably screen and start monitoring children as young as 1 month, so critical interventions can start earlier.
• Screen through kindergarten: Now you can screen children from 1 - 72 months with no gaps, so you can use ASQ:SE-2 through kindergarten and the transition to school.
• New behavior and communication items designed to elicit parent concerns that may point to autism and early communication issues.
• New data and cutoffs: ASQ:SE-2 is based on updated research and a large sample size of more than 14,000 diverse children.
• New monitoring zone that clearly identifies children who are close to the cutoff and should be monitored and rescreened.
• Questionnaire items revised and refined based on user feedback, to help parents provide the best responses.
• Sturdy, convenient new box with a handle for easy portability.

First, parents fill out the questionnaire, checking the response that best describes their child's behavior: often or always, sometimes, or rarely or never. Clear questions help parents complete the questionnaires quickly and accurately, and open-ended questions ask about any related parental concerns. Professionals score the questionnaire in just 2 - 3 minutes, and then transfer a total score to a simple summary sheet along with any concerns the parent has noted. The summary sheet, a visual indicator of social emotional development and parent concerns, indicates whether any followup should be considered.

• Total scores that fall in the graph's range of Risk (dark shaded zone) indicate the child may need further evaluation.
