Adult ADHD Symptom Screener Based on ASRS-v1.1 (WHO)

Finding it hard
to focus at times?

Based on the WHO-validated ASRS-v1.1 - developed with the World Health Organization and Harvard Medical School. Used by clinicians worldwide as the standard first-line adult ADHD screening tool. Takes 2 minutes.

This is a screening tool only - not a diagnostic instrument. It cannot diagnose ADHD. Only a qualified mental health or medical professional can diagnose ADHD after a full clinical evaluation. Use these results as a conversation-starter with your doctor.

99.5%
Specificity - rarely flags ADHD when it isn't there
68.7%
Sensitivity - correctly identifies adults with ADHD
