Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale

ASRS-v1.1 Symptom Checklist

The Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale may be used as a screening tool to help identify symptoms that may be consistent with ADHD in adults.

Important: This quiz is not a diagnosis. It is designed to help you reflect on symptoms over the past 6 months and discuss them with a qualified mental health professional.

How It Works

Answer each question based on how you have felt and conducted yourself over the past 6 months. At the end, you will see whether your responses suggest that further evaluation may be helpful.

Question 1 of 18
Part A

Select the answer that best describes your experience over the past 6 months.

Result

Part A screening result
0/6

Inattention Subscale 0 Questions 1–4 and 7–12
Hyperactivity / Impulsivity Subscale 0 Questions 5–6 and 13–18
Additional Part B cues 0 Additional symptom probes, not a diagnostic score

What to Do Next

A positive screen does not diagnose ADHD. A full evaluation should review symptom history, impairment at work, school, home, and relationships, childhood history, sleep, anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, and other possible causes of attention problems.

If your answers resonated with you or your screening result was elevated, the next step is to schedule a psychiatric evaluation.

How This Screening Is Interpreted

  • Part A: If 4 or more responses meet the ASRS screening threshold, symptoms are highly consistent with ADHD in adults and further investigation is warranted.
  • Part B: The remaining questions provide additional cues and can help guide clinical follow-up, but no total diagnostic likelihood is assigned from Part B alone.
  • Subscale totals: The inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity totals are shown to help organize symptom patterns, but they are not a diagnosis.
