Pediatric Symptom Checklist (PSC)

is a brief screening questionnaire that is used by pediatricians and other health professionals to improve the recognition and treatment of psychosocial problems in children.
In addition to the original 35 item parent report form of the PSC, there are now many other validated forms including translations of the original form into more than a dozen other languages, a youth self report, a pictorial version, and a briefer 17 item version for both the parent and youth forms.  All are available from this website.

This website is maintained by Drs. Michael Jellinek and Michael Murphy, the authors of the PSC, to help others learn more about the PSC, how to obtain and use it, and how to get additional help if needed.

In order to encourage the widest possible access to screening, the PSC can be downloaded and used free of charge. We welcome feedback on the use of the PSC from clinicians, parents, and researchers. We ask that a copy of any study using the PSC be sent to us.
