Indirect functional assessment tools in one place
Indirect assessments are only as useful as the scoring and the figure you hand to a team. Score the informant rating scales here, and each administration produces subscale totals and a figure you can drop into a report.
The free tier covers the core timing and tally tools; the rest of the toolkit is included with a paid plan.

Questions behavior analysts ask
Which indirect assessment should I use?
QABF, FAST, MAS, and BHI are common for identifying the function of a behavior. RBS-R addresses restricted and repetitive behavior, and PDC-HS addresses performance diagnostic questions.
Do indirect assessments confirm function on their own?
No. Informant rating scales generate hypotheses that should be supported by direct observation and, where appropriate, a functional analysis.
Can a trainee complete one and share it with me?
Yes. Assessment tasks can be assigned to a trainee; their administration is shared with the supervising clinician when submitted.
