Abstract
The validity of the dinners' teacher's racing scale (CTRS) in Hong Kong Chinese school children was examined. It was Found that CTRS could significantly differentiate a behaviorally deviant group and the normal population; that CTRS has a strong positive correlation with the teacher's decision to refer a child to a mental health professional, that the CTRS by itself is not useful as a diagnostic instrument; and finally, it cannot stand alone as a screening instrument in the epidemiological study of childhood hyperactivity.Keywords
