Product Description
The BRIEF2 gives the information needed to help children and adolescents with executive dysfunction. It pinpoints exactly where and why children struggle, so users can make informed and impactful interventions and recommendations.
It is designed for a broad range of children for whom there may be concerns about self-regulation, such as those with autism spectrum disorder (ASD); learning disabilities (LD); attention disorders; traumatic brain injuries (TBI); depression; and other developmental, neurological, psychiatric, and medical conditions.
- Saves time: Administer in just 10 minutes.
- Comprehensive: Includes information about executive functioning and ADHD in one test. Features increased sensitivity to executive function problems in key clinical groups such as ADHD and ASD.
- Cohesive: Parallel structure across forms allows for more informed and effective interventions.
- Trusted: The centre of more than 1,000 peer-reviewed studies in 60 languages across six continents.
Features and benefits
- Three indexes (behavioural, emotional, and cognitive).
- The infrequency scale helps identify unusual responding.
- The Score Report's overview section provides important information at a glance, including validity results, index T scores and percentiles, and explanatory text about the child's or adolescent's overall profile. The report includes a score summary table, score profile, and item response table.
- The Interpretive Report includes all information on the score report PLUS interpretive text for BRIEF2 clinical scale, index, and composite scores and validity indicators.
- The Parent/Teacher form includes an optional ADHD score profile, interpretive text, and DSM-5 ADHD Symptom Checklist.

- The Self-Report provides additional details about the level of awareness and perceptions of the test taker’s own executive functioning. It contains 55 items within seven theoretically and empirically derived and well-validated clinical scales that parallel the Parent and Teacher forms: Inhibit, Self-Monitor, Shift, Emotional Control, Task Completion, Working Memory, and Plan/Organize.
Test structure
- Three domains evaluate cognitive, behavioral, and emotional regulation, and a Global Executive Composite score provides and overall snapshot of executive functioning.
