WHO 18-item screener for attention and hyperactivity/impulsivity signals.

🧠

Adult ADHD Self-Report (ASRS)

18 items, about 5 minutes. This scale screens for attention and hyperactivity/impulsivity signals and is not a clinical diagnosis. You will get Part A screener status, dimension scores, and AI action tips.

1. How often do you have trouble wrapping up the final details of a project, once the challenging parts have been done?

2. How often do you have difficulty getting things in order when you have to do a task that requires organization?

3. How often do you have problems remembering appointments or obligations?

4. When you have a task that requires a lot of thought, how often do you avoid or delay getting started?

5. How often do you fidget or squirm with your hands or feet when you have to sit down for a long time?

6. How often do you feel overly active and compelled to do things, like you were driven by a motor?

7. How often do you make careless mistakes when you have to work on a boring or difficult project?

8. How often do you have difficulty keeping your attention when you are doing boring or repetitive work?

9. How often do you have difficulty concentrating on what people say to you, even when they are speaking directly to you?

10. How often do you misplace or have difficulty finding things at home or at work?

11. How often are you distracted by activity or noise around you?

12. How often do you leave your seat in meetings or other situations in which you are expected to remain seated?

13. How often do you feel restless or fidgety?

14. How often do you have difficulty unwinding and relaxing when you have time to yourself?

15. How often do you find yourself talking too much when you are in social situations?

16. When you are in a conversation, how often do you find yourself finishing the sentences of the people you are talking to before they can finish them themselves?

17. How often do you have difficulty waiting your turn in situations when turn taking is required?

18. How often do you interrupt others when they are busy?

What is ASRS?

ASRS (Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale) is a widely used WHO screener for adult ADHD-related symptoms. It helps identify common patterns in sustained attention, task execution, restlessness, and impulsive response style.

How to read your result

Part A (first 6 items) is the key screener: 4+ positives commonly suggest a positive screen and follow-up evaluation; 2-3 positives indicate notable risk signals.
Dimension profile matters most: higher inattention links to startup/completion and organization friction; higher hyperactivity-impulsivity links to restlessness, interrupting, and wait intolerance.
Use total score mainly for trend tracking, not diagnosis by itself. Read it together with sleep, stress, and workload context across recent weeks.
If patterns persist for 6+ months with clear functional impairment, seek formal clinical assessment.

Why this test is different (especially AI)

Beyond a single total score: you get Part A status, dual-dimension profile, and threshold-based risk framing.
AI interpretation is workflow-oriented: it translates scores into startup friction, switching cost, and completion drag, then provides concrete weekly actions.
Built for retest and iteration: you can measure changes after routine/task/focus interventions instead of one-off labeling.

Note: This tool supports self-awareness and self-help, and does not replace medical diagnosis.
