A Child Behavior Checklist is one component of the Achenbach System of Empirically Based Assessment (ASEBA), a methodology that is used to detect behavioral and emotional problems in children and adolescents. ASEBA collects and correlates information from three separate sources:
- The Child Behavior Checklist, which parents complete.Â
- The Teacher’s Report Form (TRF), which teachers complete
- The Youth Self-Report (YSR), is completed by the child or adolescent him or herself.Â
