ADHD Conner's Testing

What is ADHD Conner's Testing?

Conner’s Adult ADHD Rating Scale (CAARS or Conner’s test) is a gold-standard evaluation method for assessing ADHD in adults. It’s a self-reporting questionnaire that evaluates potentially ongoing ADHD symptoms while measuring their frequency and intensity. This evidence-based test measures various aspects of ADHD symptoms, such as hyperactivity, impulsivity, or inattention, across different scenarios.

Mid Cities Psychiatry offers you reliable ADHD Conner testing in Euless that provides qualitative analysis of your mental health. Our skilled clinicians use the Conners ADHD Rating Scale to create complete Conners Reports that detail how ADHD symptoms affect your daily life based on symptom severity.

How is Conner’s Test for ADHD Conducted?

You can take the ADHD Conner test yourself, or it can be completed with the help of our expert clinicians. Conner’s ADHD assessment is often categorized into two versions with a specific list of questions or statements you need to answer while being evaluated.

Long Version

It comprises 66 items and provides a comprehensive evaluation of your ADHD symptoms across multiple behavioral domains. Long-version Conner testing thoroughly covers the four-factor model of ADHD symptoms.

Short Version

It has 26 items that help us make a quick assessment of your ADHD symptoms. Nonetheless, the short version maintains the four-factor structure of the full version of Conner’s Testing.

The ADHD assessment, using both the short and long versions of Conners Testing, bases its evaluation on the four-factor model of ADHD symptoms. The framework has further subscales, which incorporate the following elements

Symptoms of inattention
Symptoms of Hyperactivity
Impulsive symptoms
Problems relating to self-concept

Scoring of Conner’s ADHD Rating Scale

You should always have your Conner’s test score interpreted by a qualified professional. The final test score depends on each of its constituent items and is generally based on raw scores and T-scores. The raw scores represent the initial questionnaire results, depicting the number of responses that match particular symptoms. T-scores, on the other hand, are standardized scores that compare your results to a general population sample. A T-score of more than 60 typically indicates the likelihood of clinically significant ADHD symptoms.

However, we do not make a final, definitive diagnosis without further psychiatric evaluation.

FAQs

What are the limitations of Conner Testing?

The main limitation of Conner testing is its subjective nature, as it heavily relies on self-reporting information that can be influenced by personal bias and memory recall. Also, it cannot evaluate any underlying medical conditions that contribute to similar symptoms.

Can I take an online Conner's Test?

You can take the online test, which incorporates the latest versions of Conner tests. However, it’s always advisable to seek professional support for a better interpretation of your results.

I have been a patient for two years. Every staff member has been outstanding. Amanda Bell is a blessing. She is compassionate, and sincere, listens intently and is always able to calm me and help me focus and get the most from my treatments. Dr Kazi has been available whenever I need help. She is on top of my care and aggressively monitors my progress. I came to her suffering major depression and overall a mess. My mental health has substantially improved under her care and she is continuing to help me reach and maintain even higher levels of health. The office does have strict policies but everything is clear and patients are well informed at all times. The guidelines are appropriate and reasonable. I highly recommend this mental health clinic

Fantastic staff and providers, excellent services, amazing care, compassionate professionals, timely prescription refills, and a calm atmosphere. What more could you ask for?

I have had amazing experiences with this business, both on the medical and business side. Any issues I've experienced with billing have been handled gracefully and with patience; the staff are very easy to talk to and are understanding. I LOVE PA Hofer; she (and other staff) are always very quick to answer online Portal questions, are very flexible with visits, understand when it comes to medication costs/changes, and go the extra step when it comes to evidence-based practice.

I've been taking my mom to Dr. Kazi for the past 17 months and we still go. She is an amazing physician and her staff is very warm and welcoming. She has helped my mom when mom needed her the most. If it was not for Dr. Kazi's, I don't know what would have happened to my mom. I am so grateful to her. The bonus is her staff is awesome. Very response to emails and phone calls. Amanda is amazing!! I can't thank Dr. Kazi enough!!
