NPİSTANBUL Brain Hospital
Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS-v1.1)
- 18 questions
- About 4 minutes
- For adults
These tests are for screening. A result is not a diagnosis: only a psychiatrist or psychologist can make one, after talking with you.
Your answers are scored on this device and never sent. Only your result is saved, with the email address you confirm.
Confirm your email address
Before the test we send a 6-digit code to your email address. Your result is saved with it, so that our team can help you if you wish. The email with the code contains no health information.
Answer the questions with the past 6 months in mind, choosing the option that best reflects how you have felt and behaved during that time.
Choosing an answer takes you to the next question. You can go back at any time.
Your result
Symptoms fit adult ADHD
You gave at least four of the six Part A answers at a frequency the scale treats as significant. This pattern fits adult ADHD well, so we recommend a thorough assessment by a psychiatrist. Bear in mind that sleep problems, anxiety, depression and other conditions can cause similar difficulties.
Screening result does not point to ADHD
Your Part A answers are below the scale’s screening threshold for ADHD. If difficulties with attention, organisation or restlessness still clearly affect your work or relationships, you can talk them over with a professional.
Part A (screening): number of answers in the significant range
out of 6
- Inattention score
- out of 36
- Hyperactivity / impulsivity score
- out of 36
For information only: these scores have no cut-off of their own.
Take your result as a rough guide, not a diagnosis. How you feel over time, and a conversation with a specialist, tell much more than a questionnaire.
Talk it through with a specialist
If your result worries you, or you would like to talk it through, our psychiatrists can review it with you, free and without obligation.

About this test
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that starts in childhood, often continues into adult life and can affect work, study and everyday life. This questionnaire has 18 questions and takes about 4 minutes. The first six questions (Part A) give the screening result; your inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity scores are shown as well. The result is not a diagnosis — only a detailed assessment by a specialist can establish ADHD.
