It now has a version for 2 to 4-year-olds as well as one for over 18 – 25 questions – Choose from a wide variety of forms in a number of languages. Impact and follow-up versions are also available. Scoring is quite complex. Setting up an account to have them do it for 25 cents is difficult as well!

The Young DIVA-5 – The Diagnostic Interview for ADHD in young people aged 5 -17 years – In order to simplify the evaluation of each of the 18 symptoms/criteria for ADHD, the interview provides a list of concrete and realistic examples. The examples are based on the common descriptions provided by patients in clinical practice. Examples are also provided of the types of impairments that are commonly associated with the symptoms in five areas of everyday life: at home and at school or college; relationships and family life; social contacts; free time and hobbies; self-confidence and self-image. Whenever possible, the Young DIVA should be completed with the young person in the presence of a parent and/or family member, to enable retrospective and collateral information to be ascertained at the same time.
