How to Use ASQ:SE-2 Questionnaires
Fast and easy to use, ASQ:SE-2 questionnaires take just 10-15 minutes for parents to complete. First, parents fill out the questionnaire, checking the response that best describes their child''''¬''¢s behavior:often or always, sometimes,orrarely or never. Clear questions help parents complete the questionnaires quickly and accurately, and open-ended questions ask about any related parental concerns. Professionals score the questionnaire in just 2-3 minutes, and then transfer a total score to a simple summary sheet along with any concerns the parent has noted. The summary sheet, a visual indicator of social emotional development and parent concerns, indicates whether any followup should be considered.
- Total scores that fall in the graph''''¬''¢s range of risk(dark shaded zone)indicate the child may need further evaluation.
- NEW!A total score in thenew ''''¬Åmonitoring''''¬ zone (light shaded area)helps identify children that may require followup actions based on items of concern. Professionals can work with parents to address behaviors of concern and provide social-emotional development information sheets and activities to help their child make progress before the next screening.
- Scoresoutside the shaded zonesmean the child''''¬''¢s social-emotional development appears to be developing on schedule. Parents can monitor their child''''¬''¢s development by rescreening at the next ASQ:SE-2 interval.
