A comprehensive set of rating scales and formsincluding:Development and Applications of theBASC-3 Family of Assessments– Teacher Rating Scales (TRS)– Parent Rating Scales (PRS)– Self-Report of Personality (SRP)– Student Observation System (SOS)– Structured Developmental History (SDH) Together, they help you understand the behaviorsand emotions of children and adolescents.Purpose and Benefits of BASC-3 Uses a multidimensional approach for conducting a comprehensiveassessment– clinicians can better understand student emotions and behavior from avariety of perspectives Strong base of theory and research Useful for identifying behavior problems as required by IDEA, and fordeveloping FBAs, BIPs, and IEPs Assists with Differential diagnosis (i.e. hyperactivity and attention problems) Helps determine educational eligibility for special education Aides in design of treatment plans Allows clinician to progress monitor using evidence-based interventions Highlights emotional and behavioral strengths - Not just problem behavior1

Reynolds, Ph.D. Maintain measurement integrity and quality Improve integration of components Improve item content, scale reliability, and score inferencevalidity Offer new content scales without lengthening the ratingscales significantly Enhance flexibility of administration and reporting options Enhance progress monitoring Enhance links and implementation to verified interventionstrategiesWhat is the BASC-3?Multi-Dimensional SystemA Multidimensional, Multimethod approach to assessingchild and adolescent Emotional Disabilities .

Evaluation of a child with ADHD should also include assessmentfor co-existing conditions: learning and language problems,aggression, disruptive behavior, depression or anxiety. As many as one-third of children diagnosed with ADHD also havea co-existing condition.IDEIA’s Definition of Emotional Disturbance The term means a condition exhibiting one or more of the followingcharacteristics over a long period of time and to a marked degree thatadversely affects a child’s educational performance:– An inability to learn that cannot be explained by intellectual, sensory, orhealth factors;– An inability to build or maintain satisfactory interpersonal relationshipswith peers and teachers;– Inappropriate types of behavior or feelings under normal circumstances;– A general pervasive mood of unhappiness or depression;– A tendency to develop physical symptoms or fears associated withpersonal or school problems; The term includes schizophrenia. The term does not apply to children whoare socially maladjusted, unless it is determined that they have anemotional disturbance.ISBE’s Definition of Emotional Disability Emotional Disability (includes schizophrenia but does not apply tochildren who are socially maladjusted, unless it is determined that theyhave an emotional disturbance) means a condition exhibiting one ormore of the following characteristics over a long period of time and to amarked degree that adversely affects a child's educational performance:– An inability to learn that cannot be explained by intellectual, sensory, orhealth factors;– An inability to build or maintain satisfactory interpersonal relationships withpeers and teachers;– Inappropriate types of behavior or feelings under normal circumstances;– A general pervasive mood of unhappiness or depression; or– A tendency to develop physical symptoms or fears associated with personalor school problems.3

10/23/2015Social MaladjustmentKnow who you are evaluating:“Symptoms” do not mean the same thing for everyone. “ there is a final, perhaps fatal flaw in thispractice. The “Achilles heel” in this regard maybe the problem of co-occurrence orcomorbidity ” (p. 903) Comorbidities are common in childhoodpsychopathology and being sociallymaladjusted does not make one immune fromED’s.Merrell, K.W., & Walker, H.M. (2004). Deconstructing a definition: Socialmaladjustment versus emotional disturbance and moving the EBD field forward.Psychology in the Schools, 41, 899-910.Poor Academic Outcomes Associatedwith Presence of an ED Lower grades and poor attendance rates(Suldo, Thalji, & Ferron, 2011) Greater incidence of adolescent smoking (Lewis et al., 2011), illicitsubstance use (Goodman, 2010), and alcohol. More mental health disorders in early adulthood(Johnson, Cohen, & Kasen, 2009; Kinnunen, Laukkanen, &Kylma, 2009). Only 20% of students in special education with emotional andbehavioral disorders pursue any type of post-secondaryeducation(Wagner, Kutash, Duchnowski, & Epstein, 2005).DEVELOPMENT & STANDARDIZATIONBASC-3 Standardization Sites MapDevelopment of the BASC–3 Items were selected based on:– Standardized item loading in SEM analyses (English & Spanish)– Item-total correlation– Item bias statistics– Construct relevance– Clinical groups discrimination General normative sample was be stratified by:– Gender by race/ethnicity– Gender by geographic region– Gender by parent education level234

10/23/2015Development of PRS & SRP Spanish Forms Firm experienced in translating psychological testscompleted initial translation of all existing items. New items evaluated and back-translated by in-house staff. Bilingual psychologists from across US reviewed thematerials. Additional rounds of changes were conducted to come upwith standardization item sets. Psychometric properties of Spanish items were evaluatedprior to making final item selections.TRS & PRS – What’s New?Teacher Rating Scales (TRS)andParent Rating Scales (PRS)TRS, PRS, and SRP – What’s New? On average, across the TRS and PRS forms there are 32%new items. Significant addition to Developmental Social Disorder items.

Wild land-urban interface A special area in which fires occur is the wild land-urban interface. This increases the risk of exposure to wild land fires. In California alone it is estimated that more than 6 million people live in wild land areas and an additional 3 to 4 million live in the wild land-urban interface. Between 1980 and 1995,
