Abstract
To provide information about the psychometric properties of the Conners-Wells' Adolescent Self-Report Scale: Short Form (CASS:S; C. K. Conners, 1997), the CASS:S was administered to 110 (46%) female and 130 (54%) male psychiatric outpatients between 13 and 17 years old. The coefficient αs for the CASS:S Conduct Problems, Cognitive Problems, Hyperactivity, and ADHD Index scales were, respectively, .73, .80, .84, and .80. An exploratory maximum-likelihood factor analysis of the 18 item ratings from the Conduct, Cognitive, and Hyperactive scales identified two positively correlated dimensions; one was composed of the six items from the Conduct scale, and the other was composed of the 12 items from the Cognitive and the Hyperactive scales. The results were discussed as supporting the clinical utility of the CASS:S.

Results suggest that anxiety and depression can be reliably and validly assessed; moreover, although these disorders share a substantial component of general affective distress, they can be differentiated on the basis of factors specific to each syndrome.

Assessment of the influence of overlapping symptoms on the diagnosis of ADHD shows that ADHD is not an artifact of symptoms shared with other psychiatric disorders and that the comorbid conditions themselves are not an artifacts of overlapping ADHD symptoms.

The Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) and Anxiety Inventory (BAI) were administered to 840 outpatients to determine whether the general symptom compositions and relative amounts of variance of the common and specific dimensions of self-reported anxiety and depression for these instruments would be comparable to those that had been found by Steer et al.
