Trauma Symptom Checklist for Children (TSCC)

The Trauma Symptom Checklist for Children is a practitioner-facing child self-report checklist for clinicians and qualified assessment users evaluating trauma-exposed children ages 8-16. It helps practitioners review posttraumatic stress and related symptom domains, validity indicators, normed scores, percentiles, and profile information.

Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.

Validity First

The review foregrounds validity indicators so practitioners can judge whether the child self-report profile is interpretable.

Norm Context

Norm basis and form are retained with each result so historical review does not separate scores from their scoring context.

Who completes the TSCC?

The child completes the self-report checklist; the practitioner controls administration setup, scoring review, and interpretation.

Does the demo diagnose trauma-related disorders?

No. The demo shows supported scale scores, validity indicators, normed outputs, percentiles, and profile information without generating unsupported diagnoses.

Why are age or sex inputs shown?

Norm-relevant inputs are shown because supported normed T scores and percentiles depend on the measure's required scoring basis.

What is saved when I save the demo?

The TSCC tool and selected setup are saved. Fictional responses, sample demographics, and sample profile outputs are not saved as real client data.
