My AMAAS-PCP-SR report
Experimental instrument. AMAAS-PCP-SR is an experimental instrument in development. It has not been validated: no norms, no validated cutoffs, no established accuracy. Every answer is an approximate self-estimate, so every score here is approximate. Results are a structured self-reflection, not a screening result and not a diagnosis. A diagnosis of ADHD requires a clinician, evidence of childhood onset, symptoms across more than one setting, functional impairment, and exclusion of other explanations. For a validated free self-report, see the ASRS-v1.1.
Every answer on AMAAS-PCP-SR is a rough self-estimate, not a precise count. Treat all scores here as approximate.

AMAAS-PCP-SR results
| Domain | Average | Items estimated | Band (descriptive) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Inattention | 59% | 9 of 9 | Some traits endorsed |
| Hyperactivity | 55% | 6 of 6 | Some traits endorsed |
| Impulsivity | 54% | 6 of 6 | Some traits endorsed |
| Functional interference | 64% | 6 of 6 | Moderate reported interference |
Average is the mean of the items you estimated in that domain ("Not sure" items are left out). Bands are arithmetic thirds of the range, not validated clinical cutoffs.
What your scores mean
Counting items you estimated at 60% of the time or higher: 6 of 9 inattention items, and 8 of 12 hyperactivity / impulsivity items.
For conceptual reference, DSM-5 describes an adult symptom-count landmark of about 5 endorsed symptoms within a dimension. AMAAS-PCP-SR uses more items per dimension than DSM lists symptoms, and every answer here is an approximate estimate, so this is a way of thinking about the pattern, not a direct score comparison and not a threshold.
AMAAS-PCP-SR is experimental, approximate, and not a diagnostic instrument. Every answer is a rough self-estimate, so every figure above is approximate. A diagnosis of ADHD is made by a clinician and requires evidence of childhood onset, difficulty in more than one setting, real functional impairment, and ruling out other explanations. This report is a structured reflection on what you estimated, nothing more. For a validated, free self-report covering the same ground, the ASRS-v1.1 is the standard option.
Top-endorsed items per domain
Within each symptom domain, the items you estimated highest. Reverse-worded items are inverted before ranking.

About AMAAS-PCP-SR
AMAAS-PCP-SR is the self-report form of the Adult Multi-perspective Attentional Attributes Scale, an instrument developed for this wiki. It is original, written from the DSM-5 ADHD construct rather than adapted from any existing rating scale. Each item asks, on a 0 to 100 slider, what percent of the time an experience applies; every answer is a rough self-estimate.
It is experimental and not validated. It has no norms, no validated cutoffs, and no established sensitivity or specificity. Subscale scores are prorated over the items you estimated ("Not sure" items are excluded); the descriptive bands are arithmetic thirds of the range, chosen for readability, not clinical thresholds. The instrument is on a validation roadmap (expert review, pilot testing, factor analysis, reliability and criterion-validity studies, norming); the experimental label is removed only when that work supports it.
A planned observer-report form (AMAAS-PCP-OR) will let someone who knows the respondent well rate the same domains, producing a self-versus-observer concordance report. That form is not yet built.
