Abstract

The psychometric properties of an adolescent mental health outcome instrument (Youth Outcome Questionnaire Self‐Report version [Y‐OQ‐SR]) were examined. Participants were 206 adolescents (ages 12–18; mean age=15). The Y‐OQ‐SR was evaluated in terms of its internal consistency, test‐retest reliability, and concurrent validity. Criterion measures included the Behavior Assessment System for Children, Self‐Report of Personality—Adolescent Version (SRP), and the Child Behavior Checklist Youth Self Report (YSR). Analyses revealed very good internal consistency and test‐retest reliability of the Y‐OQ‐SR total score and subscales, and moderate to good concurrent validity with the SRP and YSR. The Y‐OQ‐SR appears to be a valid and reliable self‐report measure of psychosocial distress that warrants further study in youth psychotherapy research. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
