What is ASQ:SE?• Parent-completed

questionnaires that reliably identify young children at risk for social or emotional difficulties.

• Screens 7 key behavioral areas—self-regulation, compliance, communication, adaptive functioning, autonomy, affect, and interaction with people



How was ASQ:SE developed?• Developed as a complement to ASQ,

developmental screening tool

• Work started in 1995 at University of Oregon

• Authors reviewed other standardized tests and studied the literature extensively

• ASQ:SE published in 2001



Why Choose ASQ:SE?• Easy-to-use tool with deep, exclusive focus on

children’s social and emotional behavior• Allows professionals to quickly recognize young

children at risk for social or emotional difficulties• Identifies behaviors of concern to caregivers• Identifies any need for further assessment• Cost-effective, parent/caregiver-completed,

photocopiable, and culturally sensitive



Features of ASQ:SE• 6-, 12-, 18-, 24-, 30-, 36-, 48-, and 60-month intervals• 3–6 month administration window on either side of
