For children and teens ages 6 to 18. This is a screening questionnaire, not a diagnosis. It is based on the SNAP-IV rating scale by J. Swanson, E. Nolan and W. Pelham, a widely used tool in the public domain.

How much does this describe your child?
Your results
Two areas, one picture
Each scale shows where your answers place your child against the range typically seen for this age group. The marker line shows where that typical range ends.

What this suggests
What this cannot tell you
A screening is a snapshot, not a diagnosis. Sleep problems, anxiety, learning difficulties and ordinary developmental phases can all look like ADHD from the outside, and only a proper assessment can tell them apart. A high score does not confirm ADHD, and a typical score does not rule it out.

Common questions
The essentials, in plain terms.
Is this screener private?
Yes. Every answer stays in your browser on this device. Nothing is saved, sent, or seen by CAYA World Clinic, and closing the page erases everything. We count how often the screener is started and completed, never your answers.
Is this a diagnosis?
No. It is a screening questionnaire, not a diagnosis. A raised score means the pattern is worth a proper look; only a structured assessment can confirm whether a child has ADHD.
Is this a free online ADHD test for my child?
Yes, in the everyday sense of the phrase. It is a free 5-minute online screener you complete about your child, based on the SNAP-IV, for ages 6 to 18. Clinicians say screener rather than test because it screens for ADHD; it cannot diagnose it. A full assessment is what confirms or rules out a diagnosis.
What is the SNAP-IV?
The SNAP-IV is a widely used, public-domain parent rating scale based on the standard clinical criteria for ADHD. It looks at two areas, inattention and hyperactivity or impulsivity, in children aged 6 to 18.
My child scored above the range. Does that mean they have ADHD?
Not on its own. Sleep problems, anxiety, stress, or simply age can all look like ADHD from the outside. A structured assessment is the reliable way to tell the difference, and a free consultation is a good place to start.
