Abstract

The Youth Outcome Questionnaire (Y-OQ) was developed by a group of professors at Brigham Young University to offer professionals in psychology an outcome measure for children between the ages of 4 and 17. This measure was to be easy to administer, quick to fill out and score, and cost effective. The main attribute it had to contain was a sensitivity to change that would allow the clinician and others the ability to track progress and monitor change in a specific individual. The result of this endeavor was the Youth Outcome Questionnaire, a 64 item parent report measure that takes about 15 minutes to complete and score.
