Description:

The Beck Youth InventoriesSecond Edition (BYI-II) is composed of five scales used separately or in combination to obtain self-report data of the experience of Anger (BANI-Y), Anxiety (BAI-Y), Depression (BDI-Y), Disruptive Behavior (BDBI-Y), and Self-Concept (BSCI-Y) for youth aged 7-18 years. The combination of scales can be used as part of a contemporary assessment emphasizing multiple measures and data sources. Youth reports of negative emotional states can be associated with additional matters of great concern, such as suicide ideation and suicide itself. Moreover, the inventories facilitate the assessment of comorbidity, common in youth disorders. The BYI-II may be used in varied settings that include schools, outpatient mental health and medical settings, as well as forensic, residential, and inpatient settings.
