Full Product Description
The SCL–90–R is an evolution of its un–normed precursor, the SCL–90 assessment. By developing norms for the revised assessment (SCL–90–R),
and developing the BSI® assessment from that, anxiety scale issues were resolved and the obsessive–compulsive scale was improved.
Benefits
Supports initial evaluation of patients at intake as an objective method for symptom assessment.
Measures patient progress during and after treatment to monitor change.
Measures outcomes for treatment programs and providers through aggregated patient information.
Helps measure the changes in symptoms such as depression and anxiety.
Features
SCL–90–R helps measure 9 primary symptom dimensions and is designed to provide an overview of a patient’s symptoms and their intensity at a specific point in time.
Contains only 90 items and can be completed in just 12–15
minutes.
Progress report graphically displays patient progress for up to 5 previous administrations.
Assessment helps facilitate treatment decisions and identify patients before problems become acute by providing an index of symptom severity.
Global Severity Index can be used as a summary of the test.
More than 1,000 studies demonstrate the reliability,
validity, and utility of the instrument.
Interpretive and Profile Reports provide information on all three adult normative groups: non–patient, outpatient, and inpatient.
The Profile Report graphically displays the data using the norm group of your choice. The Interpretive Report graphically displays the data using the non–patient norms.
