Comparative Reports combine the results of different raters to provide an overview of an individual's scores from a multi-rater perspective. This highlights potentially important inter-rater differences in scores.
Interpretive Reports provide detailed information about scores from a single administration, presented both numerically and graphically. An individual's scores are compared to those in the normative sample and elevations at the scale and subscale level are indicated.
Progress Monitoring and Treatment Effectiveness Reports combine results from up to four ratings over time by the same rater.
With 80 items on a 6-point Likert-type scale, the CEFI Adult offers a multi-rater perspective of an individual’s executive function, with Self-Report and Observer forms. The CEFI Adult can be administered and scored online.
The CEFI Adult is standardized on a nationally-representative sample stratified according to U.S. Census data for race/ethnicity, education level, and region. The CEFI Adult is the most representative nationally-standardized behavior rating scale of executive function currently available. Reliability and validity data indicate strong psychometric qualities.
