The CBCL is part of The Achenbach System of Empirically Based Assessment (ASEBA)that measures a broad range of behavioral, emotional, and social behaviors. The CBCL is administered in interview format and respondents are asked to rate 112 problem items as 0 for "not true of the child," 1 for "somewhat or sometimes true of the child," and 2 for "very true or often true of the child", based on the past two months. The raw scores from the 112 items are then compared with age- and gender-matched controls from the standardization sample, and standard scores are then derived with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. Worst value is 80; best value is 30.
