    Development and Validation of the ADHD Symptom and Side Effect Tracking - Baseline Scale (ASSET-BS): A Novel Short Screening Measure for ADHD in Clinical Populations

    by Joel L. Young, Richard N. Powell, Celeste Zabel, Jaime Saal, Lisa L. M. Welling, Jillian Fortain, Ashley Ceresnie

    Objective The aim was to develop and test a novel screen of adult ADHD, with a focus on clinical use. We designed a series of three studies to accomplish this aim. Method Study One (n = 155) and Study Two (n = 591) collected data via surveys to conduct exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses respectively. Study Three analyzed the scale's psychometrics in a clinical sample (n = 151). Results Study One and Study Two identified a 10-item scale with a two-factor structure. Study Three found good discriminant validity, sensitivity = 80.0%, specificity = 80.2%, and convergent validity with the Brown Executive Function/Attention Scales, r (131) = .76, p < .001, and the Conner’s Adult ADHD Rating Scales r (131) = .71, p < .001. Conclusion The scale demonstrated effectiveness in screening for ADHD in a psychiatric outpatient population. Its results may be used to identify patients that may benefit from thorough ADHD diagnostic procedures. Keywords: adult ADHD, assessment, decision making
