The Trauma Symptom Checklist for Young Children™ Screening Form (TSCYC™-SF) allows you to quickly screen the parents or caregivers of children ages 3-12 years for symptoms of trauma and determine if follow-up evaluation and treatment is warranted.

Purpose: Helps identify possible child victims of trauma
Format: Paper and pencil
Age Range: 3 years to 12 years
Time: 5 minutes

Key Features:

• Trauma Informed Care: The TSCYC™-SF supports the trauma informed care approach to treatment.
• Efficiency: With a quick administration time of just 5 minutes, this screening form quickly indicates whether a child is at risk for clinically significant psychological disturbance.
• Available in Spanish: TSCYC-SF Hand Scorable Answer Sheets have been translated into U.S. Spanish to assist clinicians with bilingual and Spanish-speaking children and families. A Spanish Kit is also available. This product uses English norms only. 

Technical Information:

• Normative data (N = 750) features caretaker reports of children ages 3-12 years.
• Internal consistency coefficients are in the good-to-excellent range.
• Test–retest reliability was r = .80 (p <. 001) for each scale.

Test Administration: 

• The TSCYC Screening Form consists of two subscales: General Trauma (GT), with 12 items, and Sexual Concerns (SC), with 8 items.
• Can be administered individually or in a group setting.
• The testing environment should be relatively quiet, free from distraction, and adequately illuminated. 

Scoring and Reporting:

• To score the TSCYC-SF, tear off the perforated strips along the side of the completed form and peel away the top sheet to reveal the scoring sheet beneath.
  The scoring sheet is used to calculate the General Trauma (GT) raw score and Sexual Concerns (SC) raw score. 
• Features separate cutoff scores (derived from TSCYC normative data) for boys and girls ages 3-4 years, ages 5-9 years, and ages 10-12 years.
• As with the TSCC-SF, the SC subscale is scored separately from the GT subscale because sexual symptoms are somewhat specific to childhood sexual abuse, whereas nonsexual symptoms reflect general abuse related impacts.
