Achenbach System of Empirically Based Assessment (ASEBA)
Achenbach System of Empirically Based Assessment (ASEBA), is a collection of questionnaires used to assess adaptive and maladaptive behaviour and overall functioning in individuals. The system includes report forms for multiple informants – the Child Behaviour Checklist (CBCL) is used for caregivers to fill out ratings of their child’s behaviour, the Youth Self Report Form (YSR) is used for children to rate their own behaviour, and the Teacher Report Form (TRF) is used for teachers to rate their pupil’s behaviour. The ASEBA seeks to capture consistencies or variations in behaviour across different situations and with different interaction partners.
ASEBA–Web
Is a secure Internet solution that enables completion of ASEBA forms online, printing of ASEBA forms, and scoring of ASEBA profiles.
ASEBA–Web provides an enhanced user experience, involving web–based administration of assessments, collection of data from informants (or traditional key–entry from printed form), processing, scoring, cross–informant comparisons, and storage of data. ASEBA–Web enables online administration of ASEBA assessment forms for ages 1½–5, 6–18, 18–59, and 60–90+.
ASEBA–Web is a subscription service that is renewable on an annual basis and requires e–units to administer assessments via the web. When you subscribe to your 1st years licence you will receive 50 free e–units. When your 1st years licence is nearing its end date you will be notified to renew your licence, once you renew your 2nd years licence you will automatically receive 15 free e–units.
E–UNITS are sold in 100, 500, 1000 and 5000 units which can be ordered through Brainworx.
A report uses 2 e–units per client unless a physical test form is needed to be printed out.
One E–UNIT is required for each of the following:
- Creating a form either for online completion by an informant or client, or for key entry
- Printing a paper form for manual completion
- Scoring a form to produce profiles and a narrative report
How many e–units you need will depend on how many clients your organisation sees within a year for example if you have 100 clients per year you will need 200 e–units
