ASQ-3 is a low-cost, reliable, parent-completed tool for screening infants and young children for developmental delays during the crucial first 5½ years of life.
Research has indeed shown that parents—regardless of socioeconomic status, location, or well-being—give accurate information about their child’s development (Rydz et al., 2005; Squires et al., 1998). Parent report is most accurate if questions are straight-forward and ask about their child’s current, observable behav…
No, posting ASQ-3 or ASQ:SE-2 questionnaires on any website, password protected or otherwise, is not permitted. However, we permit and encourage linking from your website to the sample questionnaires on our website. Our sample questionnaires may not be posted on any other website.
The ASQ-3 screens children up to 66 months of age. The ASQ:SE-2 screens children up to 72 months of age.

Keep in mind that these questions are not diagnostic; they can only serve as a gui…
Personal-Social is one of the five areas on ASQ-3 questionnaires. Items in the Personal-Social Area look at a child's self-help skills and their interactions with others. Ages & Stages Questionnaires: Social-Emotional, Second Edition, (ASQ:SE-2) provides a more in-depth screening of children's social-emotional skills…
The ASQ-3 scores are domain scores; there are only 6 questions for each ASQ-3 area so skipping even 1 question s means missing 1/6th (16.67%) of the data; omitting 2 items for an area means missing 2/6 th or 33.33% of the data. There is only one ASQ:SE-2 score which is calculated from all of the items on a question…
