 Evaluation Scale for Disturbing Behavior - (EECP).
Form for Barkley Parents' Report

Contains symptoms of ADHD, oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), and the disorder of
behavior (TC). According to the DSM IV, it assesses to what extent the symptoms of ADHD may have
interfered with children's ability to function in different areas. The items with numbers
Odds correspond to symptoms of inattention and evens correspond to symptoms of hyperactivity.
impulsiveness.

Los siguientes ítems numerados del 1-8 corresponden a síntomas para el TOD (Trastorno
challenging by opposition) and the remaining ones are for symptoms of the TC (conduct disorder). To score
For the TDO items (1-8), simply count the number of items that were answered with a 2.
(frequently), or with 3 (very frequently). If the number is 4 or more, then it meets or ...
exceeds the minimum symptom score recommended for SUD in the DSM IV. To score the
TC items, count the number of items answered with Yes. If 3 or more items have been answered in this way.
Thus, it meets the minimum symptom criteria for PTSD according to the DSM IV.

Standards have been developed for ADHD items on this scale, using a broad number
of American children (Pineda, Henao & cols., 1999). Its objective is diagnosis and
determinar las tres dimensiones que configuran el síndrome (inatención, hiperactividad e
impulsivity). Its rating is quantitative and semi-quantitative (0 never - 3 almost always). It is based
in Criterion A of the DSM-IV for hyperactivity and impulsivity disorder. Minimum score for
the total scale is 0 and the maximum is 54. The scores of the subscales vary as follows: Attention Deficit from 0 to 27, the
of hyperactivity from 0 to 18 and impulsivity from 0 to 9 and the joint scale of hyperactivity-
impulsivity ranges from 0 to 27.

The internal consistency of the instrument, first with 18 items from the total scale, then with
nine items of inattention, then with nine items of hyperactivity-impulsivity and, finally, with
six items of hyperactivity, it is very solid for both sexes and for all ages (alpha coefficient
from Cronbach 0.85 to 0.92). For the subscale of nine symptoms of inattention, the alpha coefficient varies
between 0.81 (girls aged 4 to 5 years) and 0.90 (boys aged 6 to 11 years). The hyperactivity subscale with six
questions had a consistency that varies between 0.71 (children aged 12 to 17) and 0.87 (children aged 6 to 11).
The impulsivity subscale with three items is less consistent, ranging from 0.47 (children aged 12 to
17) and 0.79 (boys and girls aged 6 to 11). A mixed subscale of nine questions on hyperactivity-
Impulsivity shows a high consistency ranging from 0.78 (children aged 12 to 17) to 0.90 (girls aged 6 to 11).
