The briefer version of the PSC3 is broadly used, with > 40 published studies.23 These studies have shown that the PSC - 17 yields higher detection rates than pediatricians relying on
clinical judgment alone24 and has risk rates comparable to those of the PSC - 35,3 semistructured interviews (Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School - Age Children — Present and Lifetime Version), 25 and longer questionnaire measures.2 The PSC - 17 was derived from the PSC - 35 through an exploratory factor
analysis conducted on data collected from the 1994 to 1999 Child
Behavior Study (CBS), a nationally representative sample of > 20000 pediatric outpatients.3 In that study, the exploratory factor
analysis suggested that it was possible to create a briefer version of the PSC with 17 of the original 35 items.

Weighted - average correlation coefficients between equivalent pairs of SDQ and Child
Behavior Checklist subscales11 from 9 parent - reported studies were uniformly strong and positive (range: 0.52 < r < 0.71).10 Several studies showed strong correlations between SDQ subscales and «real world» outcomes such as
clinical diagnoses (criterion validity); SDQ scores identified school - aged children with concurrent behavioral and emotional disorders, including attention - deficit / hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism spectrum disorder / Asperger syndrome (ASD / AS), and predicted their occurrence 3 years later.4, 12,13 However, multitrait - multimethod
analyses have not provided consistently strong evidence of discriminant validity of the school - age SDQ subscales.
