Anxiety and Anxiety Disorders Children Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale (CY-BOCS) Scahill et al., 1997 The children's yale-brown obsessive-compulsive scale is a 10-item clinician-report measure assessing obsessive-compulsive disorder symptoms in youths ages 6-17. The children's yale-brown obsessive-compulsive scale can be used as a screening tool and to watch symptom changes over time. The children's yale-brown obsessive-compulsive scale is an adapted version of the standard adult obsessive-compulsive disorder measure, the Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale and consists of two subscales: obsessions and compulsions. Scoring Each item is rated on a 5-point scale from zero to four; except for items on control, which ask for ratings from zero to four. Total scores range from 0 to 40. Ratings include clinician synthesis of parental reports on the scales’ items, from either conjoint or separate sessions. Evidence T he children yale-brown obsessive-compulsive scale demons
