What this measures

The parent-report version of the SCARED-5. Answer based on what you've noticed about your child over the past three months.

Before you start

  • · Find a quiet few minutes - answer honestly, not how you wish you felt.
  • · There are no right or wrong answers. Pick what feels closest.
  • · This is a screening tool, not a diagnosis.
  • · If anything brings up something heavy, support is at the end.
