The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) is a parent or teacher report instrument that consists of 25 Likert-style questions that screen children for positive and negative attributes. There are different versions of the questionnaires for ages 3-4 years, 4-10 years, and 11-17 years. The questionnaire for ages 11-17 years is provided as a self-report but is also available for interviewer administration. Scoring information is also available. The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) is a copyrighted and proprietary instrument, so an electronic copy cannot be provided. Paper copies of the questionnaire can, however, be downloaded from the website and subsequently copied free of charge by researchers affiliated with nonprofit organizations that do not charge families for assessments.
