The Adaptive Behavior Assessment System, Third Edition, measures important behaviors a student displays at home, school, work, and in other settings. The behaviors included on this questionnaire range from those suitable for young children to those suitable for young adults. Some items may seem too difficult for younger students while others may seem too easy for older students. Therefore, the individual you are rating is likely to perform some but not all behaviors included on this questionnaire.
Please read and answer all items.
Please read each item carefully and rate the student's performance of the behavior. Select only one response (0, 1, 2, or 3) according to the guidelines below. Please provide a response to every item, even if some items do not seem to apply to the student's age group or are difficult to rate.
Record your answer by clicking 0, 1, 2, or 3.
If you know that the student is unable to perform the behavior, click 0 on the rating scale.
0 = Is not able to do this behavior
If you know that the student is able to perform the behavior, rate how often he or she performs the behavior when needed without reminders and without help.
1 = Never (or almost never)
2 = Sometimes
3 = Always (or almost always)
Please click only one rating of 0, 1, 2, or 3 for each item.
Indicate when your answer is a guess or estimate.
You may not have seen the student perform the specific behavior described in an item. If this is the case, you may guess if you know how the student performs similar behaviors. If your rating is based on a guess, first click 0, 1, 2, or 3, then click the box in the "Check ONLY if you GUESSED" column.
Click the box in this column only if your rating is based on a guess or estimate.
The following guideline is provided to further assist you in filling out this questionnaire.
Rating: 0 = Is not able
The student:
• cannot perform the behavior;
• is too young to have tried the behavior;
• does not have the skill to perform the behavior;
• has not been taught to perform the behavior; or
• has some limitation that prevents performing the behavior.
Rating: 1 = Never (or almost never) when needed
The student is able to perform the behavior, but
• never or almost never does it when needed;
• never or almost never does it without being reminded;
• another person does it for the student instead of the student doing it; or
• refuses to perform the behavior.
Rating: 2 = Sometimes when needed
The student is able to perform the behavior, but
• only does it sometimes when needed;
• sometimes does it without help, but sometimes needs help; or
• sometimes does it on his or her own, but sometimes needs to be reminded.
Rating: 3 = Always (or almost always) when needed
The student is able to perform the behavior, and
• does it most or all of the time without help and without being reminded; or
• displayed the behavior at a younger age but has now outgrown it.
Check ONLY if you GUESSED
After you rate an item 0, 1, 2, or 3, click the check box in this column if:

• you have not had the opportunity to see the student perform this behavior; or
• you have seen the student perform similar behaviors, but not this one.
