Abstract
This article describes the instruments and methods used to assess the primary characteristics that define attention deficit disorder (ADD) for the purpose of identification. Issues in the assessment of ADD for educational purposes include identifying co-occurring disabilities, defining the severity of ADD, and determining the pervasiveness and situational nature of the behavioral symptoms. The focus of the discussion is on what constitutes a comprehensive assessment of ADD for educational purposes and what additional work needs to be done in this area.
