Due to its brevity and easy scoring, the PSC is more appropriate for use as a screener in a busy pediatric setting than are comprehensive, long, and complicated - to - score psychosocial questionnaires, such as the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL).

Only a limited number of well - validated screens suitable for use in primary care for broad screening of family psychosocial risk and family support and functioning are available, although a few show promise.54 — 56 There are screening measures for specific psychosocial stressors, such as maternal depression, and these have been shown to be feasible in pediatric settings.57, 58 Family screening for psychosocial risk within pediatric settings, however, raises a number of dilemmas, including concerns about liability and payment and who is responsible for an adult's well - being after a problem is detected.59

Such discrepancies may have occurred because these measures are more often used in clinical settings rather than in research settings and, therefore, have received little attention in the pediatric psychology research literature.

Findings from this study support the continued use of the PSC - 17 clinically as a screening tool in pediatric settings and in research.

Within this highly variable and multidimensional context, the AAP and others have encouraged pediatric providers to develop a screening schedule that uses age - appropriate, standardized tools to identify risk factors that are highly prevalent or relevant to their particular practice setting.29, 66,67 In addition to the currently recommended screenings at 9, 18, and 24/36 months to assess children for developmental delays, pediatric practices have been asked to consider implementing standardized measures to identify other family - or community - level factors that put children at risk for toxic stress (eg, maternal depression, parental substance abuse, domestic or community violence, food scarcity, poor social connectedness).

Although rating scales are convenient for use in the pediatric office setting, we caution against their use in isolation.
