WFIRS-P

Weiss Functional Impairment Rating Scale -- Parent Report (WFIRS-P)

The WFIRS-P doesn't ask how often your child is inattentive or impulsive -- it asks what that means in real life: problems at home, at school, with everyday life skills, with self-concept, with other children, and around risky activities. 50 statements across six life domains, each optional to mark "not applicable" if it doesn't currently apply to your family's daily life.

Comparison basis: 🏥 Clinical sample · Cut-off from the validation literature

This questionnaire is a self-assessment tool for parents/caregivers and does not constitute a clinical or diagnostic evaluation. It does not replace a child and adolescent psychiatric or psychological assessment. If you're concerned about your child's well-being, reach out to your child's pediatrician or the National Parent & Youth Helpline (1-855-427-2736, free and confidential).

Important for interpretation

The validated threshold of 0.65 applies only to the total score. The six domains below show where the impact falls but have no scientifically checked reference value of their own -- read them descriptively (how strong, in which area), not as a standalone diagnostic threshold.
