Abstract The Behavior Assessment System for Children, Second Edition ( BASC ‐2), is indeed a system, in that it includes a wide range of measures and scales designed for the comprehensive assessment of child behavioral and emotional adjustment, mental health, subsyndromal mental health symptoms, and behavioral and emotional competencies. The system includes the widely used teacher, parent, and student self‐report ratings scale, as well as college and early elementary grade self‐report forms, progress monitoring forms, clinician and classroom intervention guides, the Parenting Relationship Questionnaire, a developmental history form, the Student Observation Scale for classroom observations, the Behavioral and Emotional Screening System, and other supplementary materials. Information about the administration, scoring, interpretation, and reliability and validity evidence related to the core BASC ‐2 rating scales is presented.
