RCADS - Revised Children's Anxiety and Depression Scale RCADS - Parent

The Revised Children's Anxiety and Depression Scale–Parent Version (RCADS-P) is a 47-item caregiver-report measure designed to assess anxiety and depressive symptoms in children and adolescents ages 8–18. It evaluates six symptom domains corresponding to DSM-IV diagnostic categories: separation anxiety disorder, social phobia, generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and major depressive disorder. The measure also provides Total Anxiety and Total Internalizing scores and can be used to supplement child self-report, support symptom assessment, and monitor treatment progress.
