​

The ASRS v1.1 is a brief screening tool developed to help identify whether an adult may be experiencing symptoms consistent with Attention‑Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This tool focuses on common challenges related to attention, impulsivity, and executive functioning.
 

While not a diagnostic instrument, it provides a helpful starting point for conversations about focus, productivity, and emotional regulation—especially in work, school, or daily routines.
 

18 Questions (Part A: 6 Scored, Part B: 12 Reflective)
 

Who It’s For:

Adults (18+) who are curious about whether ADHD traits may be present in their daily lives, or who want to better understand how attention-related challenges affect their functioning.
 

Duration:

Approximately 5–7 minutes
 

What It Measures:

The ASRS assesses symptoms related to ADHD across two parts:
 

• Part A includes 6 scored questions that screen for core traits of adult ADHD, such as distractibility, impulsivity, forgetfulness, and difficulty completing tasks.
   

• Part B includes 12 reflection-based questions to help identify how these traits may impact your work, relationships, and overall functioning.
   

Score Interpretation (Part A)

Scored Range: 0–6
 

• 0–3: Not Consistent with ADHD in Adults
  Your responses suggest that ADHD traits are not currently having a major impact on your day-to-day life. You likely manage attention, task initiation, and impulse control within typical ranges.
   

• 4–6: Highly Consistent with ADHD in Adults
  Your responses align with patterns commonly seen in adults with ADHD. A full evaluation by a clinician is recommended to better understand how these symptoms may be affecting your life and what kinds of support might be helpful.
   

Support for Focus and Functioning

If you scored low, this likely reflects strong skills in focus, organization, and follow-through. These traits often contribute to success in both personal and professional settings, and can serve as a foundation for resilience in daily life.
 

If you scored high, it doesn’t mean something is “wrong”—just that your brain may process attention and motivation differently. With the right insight and support, many adults with ADHD go on to thrive by building self-awareness, structure, and tools that work for them.
 

About Part B

Part B is not scored, but it offers valuable insight into how ADHD-related traits may be showing up across different areas of your life. These questions are best reviewed with a clinician who can help interpret your responses in context and explore personalized strategies if needed.
