Administration

Choose the intended Conners product and age/observer form. Complete the publisher’s required administration and response-validity checks.

Licensed edition-specific scales and normative conversion; select exact product.

Use the product’s authorized scoring and normative report for its specific scales.
Interpret the findings alongside the clinical interview, functioning, history and relevant physical assessment.
