==== Status Report for Behavior Ratings ====

**Updated 31-Jul-2020**

== Tester Ratings ==

See form (Note that early versions did not contain item 25: "Absent-minded, forgets things easily"): {{erds:testerdbrs.pdf| Tester DBRS}} 

  * Item-level tester ratings from the DBRS are complete for Australia and Colorado
  * Some discrepancies noted in double-entry of behavior items in Australia for IT
  * No tester ratings available from Scandinavia - unclear if not done or just not entered
  * Rosemary's entry of item-level tester ratings included comments about the test sessions in AUS. Have not been included in files because currently contain identifying information (first names).

== Parent Ratings ==

See form (Note that early versions did not contain item 30: "Is shy"): {{erds:parent_dbrs.pdf| Parent DBRS}}

  * Item-level data for DBRS from Australia (IT-F3) and CO (IT-F4)
  * Item-level data for DBRS from Norway (IT-F3): Inattention & Hyperactivity items only 
  * Item-level data for DBRS from Sweden (IT-F4): Inattention & Hyperactivity items only 
  * Item-level data for DBRS from Sweden is missing cohorts for F1-F4 for cohorts after 2009
  * Summary score data for ODD from the DBRS available from Scandinavia for cohorts tested before 2009
  * Item-level data for Swan from Australia (F1-F3) and CO (F1-F4) {{erds:swan.pdf| Parent SWAN}}
  * No Swan data available from Scandinavia
  * Children's Global Assessment Scale {{erds:cgas_0001.pdf| Parent CGAS}}
  * Parent Report of Reading Problems and Other Problems (Diagnoses) from CO (F1-F4)

== Teacher Ratings ==

See form: {{erds:tchr_dbrs.pdf| Teacher DBRS}}

  * Item-level data for DBRS from Australia (IT,F3) and CO (IT,F3)
  * Item-level data for DBRS from Norway (IT,F1,F2,F3): Inattention and Hyperactivity items only
  * Item-level data for DBRS from Sweden (IT,F1,F2,F3, and F4): Inattention and Hyperactivity items only
  * Item-level data for DBRS from Sweden limited to cohorts tested through 2009
  * Summary score data for ODD from the DBRS available from Scandinavia for cohorts tested through 2008

==== Open Questions ====
  - Were DBRS tester ratings collected in Scandinavia?
  - Was the full set of DBRS questions asked in Scandinavia of parents and testers? (Know that Hyperactivity, Inattention, and ODD questions were asked).
  - Verify that the Swan was not asked in Scandinavia at any year
  - At what sites and for what years was the Children's Global Assessment Scale (CGAS) collected?
  - Should the parent-reported reading problems and other issues (entered in CO) be added to this file?
  - Who has algorithms for establishing the DBRS scales for Hyperactivity, Inattention, and ODD? There are apparently clinical cut-off points for diagnosis, and for ADHD, cut-offs for the subscales and the total scale.

==== What appears to be missing ====
  - Tester DBRS items/scores from Scandinavia **- if collected**
  - Item-level Parent/Teacher data for ODD from Scandinavia
  - ODD summary scores from Parents/Teachers from Sweden for tests after 2008
  - Additional DBRS items (19-30,31,Area1-Area7) for parents & teachers from Scandinavia
  - Parent-rated Global Assessment Scale (Lowest functioning & Current Functioning) from **all sites** 
  - **IF reading problems are added here:** Reading problems and issues from AUS and Scand.
  - TRF teacher reports about classroom & performance at F3 (In CO **extras.por**)
