Professionals can rely on the Conners 3GI to carefully measure the general psychopathology of their clients and determine the next steps to take in further examination. The Conners 3GI has proven to be a fast and effective measure and is specifically used in monitoring treatment and intervention.
The Conners 3GI is included in the full-length Conners 3 (for parent, teacher and self-report forms) or can be purchased separately. Spanish versions are available for parent and self-report forms.
Feedback Forms provide parents and teachers and easy to read and understand feedback that summarizes the assessment results.
Progress Reports compare the results of two to four administrations for the same individual to measure changes over time. These reports are ideal to use when monitoring treatment and intervention.
Conners 3 ADHD Index
The Conners 3rd Edition™ offers a 10-item Conners 3 ADHD Index (Conners 3AI™). The items are taken from the Conners 3 full-length form and are the perfect tool when time is limited.
The brief index also works well when you need to screen a large group of children and adolescents to see if further assessment of ADHD is warranted.
Additionally, this form can be used to monitor the effectiveness of treatment plans, and measure the patient’s response to intervention.
The items were specifically selected for this form and are proven to be the best items in differentiating between youth with ADHD from those without a clinical diagnosis.
The Conners 3AI is included in the full-length Conners 3 or can be purchased separately.
