Conners Comprehensive Behavior Rating Scales™ (Conners CBRS™)

DSM-5 Update

C. Keith Conners, Ph.D.

OverviewThe Conners Comprehensive Behavior Rating Scales™ (Conners CBRS™) features direct links between scale content on the full-length forms (i.e., Conners CBRS Parent [Conners CBRS–P], Conners CBRS Teacher [Conners CBRS–T], and Conners CBRS Self-Report [Conners CBRS–SR]), and symptom criteria in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition, Text Revision (DSM-IV-TR; American Psychiatric Association, 2000). The symptom criteria assessed on the Conners CBRS correspond to the following disorders: Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Conduct Disorder (CD), Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), Major Depressive Episode, Manic Episode, Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Separation Anxiety Disorder, Social Phobia, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Autistic Disorder, and Asperger’s Disorder. Items on the Conners CBRS DSM Symptom Scales approximate symptom-level criteria from the DSM; diagnostic criteria (e.g., course, age of onset, differential diagnosis, level of impairment, and pervasive-ness) are not represented in its entirety. (See the DSM for full diagnostic criteria.)

The American Psychiatric Association released a new edition of the DSM in May, 2013: The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5; APA, 2013). As a result, the Conners CBRS was reviewed to evaluate essential changes to scoring and interpretation of the assessment, including updates to software and online components (e.g., the Assessment, Progress, and Compara-tive reports). A few minor changes bring scoring and inter-pretation of the DSM Symptom Scales on the Conners CBRS in line with new diagnostic criteria. One substantial update in the DSM-5, the reconceptualization of the Pervasive Devel-opmental Disorders, informed scoring and interpretation of a new DSM Symptom Scale for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD); however, essentially the same items comprise this scale as were represented on the Conners CBRS for Autistic Disorder and Asperger’s Disorder (with the exception of items related to delayed communication, which is no longer a criterion of ASD; see Table 1 for details).

Changes to the Conners CBRS Corresponding to DSM-5 Criteria Updates The main source for administration, scoring, and interpretation information is still the Conners CBRS Manual. Updates to symptom criteria for ADHD, ODD, Major Depressive Episode, Manic Episode, Social Phobia, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Autistic Disorder, and Asperger’s Disorder are outlined in this update, as are changes made to scoring and interpretative considerations in the Conners CBRS (see Table 1 for a summary of changes; see Tables 2a to 13 for DSM-5 criteria, the associated Conners CBRS form items, and the response choices for when symptoms are Indicated, May be Indicated, or Not Indicated). Psychometric properties for any of the DSM Symptom Scales with items that were added or deleted (i.e., Major Depressive Episode, Social Anxiety Disorder [Social Phobia]), OCD, and ASD) are also provided in this update (see Standardization and Reliability of the Conners CBRS DSM-5 Symptom Scales). Symptom criteria covered by the Conners CBRS for CD, GAD, and Separation Anxiety Disorder did not change (see Tables 3, 9 and 10).

A DSM scoring option is now included among the report options to allow the assessor to choose either DSM-IV-TR scoring or DSM-5 scoring:

• Selecting the DSM-IV-TR scoring option will produce reports identical to the original Conners CBRS reports.

• Selecting the DSM-5 scoring option will produce reports that include DSM-5 raw scores, T-scores, Symptom Counts and interpretative considerations.

The DSM-5 scoring option includes the following changes:

i. An update to the ADHD Symptom Count for 17- to 18-year-olds.

ii. An amendment to the order of ODD Criterion A symptoms, as well as to the symptom count requirements on the self-report form for ODD Criterion A8 (Note: parent and teacher forms were not impacted by the modification to Criterion A8).

iii. An additional item for Major Depressive Episode, Criterion A1, and feedback on the “With mixed features” specifier for Major Depressive Episode.

iv. A change to the symptom count requirements for Manic Episode, Criterion A, and feedback on the “With mixed features” specifier for Manic Episode.

v. Reworking of symptom count requirements for Social Anxiety Disorder (Social Phobia), including the deletion of two items, as well as the addition of one item to Criterion B.

vi. Fewer and reorganized items on the OCD Symptom Scale.

vii. Restructured and integrated symptom count requirements for Autistic Disorder and Asperger’s Disorder, resulting in a single ASD scale.

All scoring and structural changes to the DSM Symptom Scales are outlined in Table 1. As with the original DSM-IV-TR Symptom Scales, several interpretive notes are provided in the computerized reports to further enhance the interpretation of the Conners CBRS results. The bolded notes under Tables 2a to 13 provide the updated DSM-5 interpretative considerations.

Table 1. Changes to the DSM Symptom Scales

Symptom Scale Change to DSM-5 Change to Conners CBRS

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

Fewer symptoms (5 rather than 6) are required for older adolescents and adults (17 years and older).

For individuals aged 17 years and older, and for both ADHD Predominantly Inattentive Presentation, and ADHD Predominantly Hyperactive-Impulsive Presentation, the Symptom Count is probably met when 5 or more symptoms are endorsed. ADHD Combined Presentation requires 5 or more symptoms from each of inattentive and hyperactive-impulsive symptom criteria.

ADHD subtypes are reclassified as presentations.

The DSM-5 ADHD Symptom Scales are renamed: ADHD Predominantly Inattentive Presentation, ADHD Predominantly Hyperactive-Impulsive Presentation, and ADHD Combined Presentation.

Oppositional Defiant Disorder

Criterion A symptoms are reorganized into three categories: Angry/Irritable Mood, Argumentative/Defiant Behavior, and Vindictiveness.

Any tables in the Conners CBRS reports that present ODD symptom criteria and/or corresponding items on the DSM-5 ODD Symptom Scale are reorganized with subheadings. Symptom criteria are reordered accordingly.

A frequency qualifier of no less than twice in 6 months is added to Criterion A8, spiteful or vindictive behavior.

Symptom Count scoring criteria for the parent and teacher forms account for this frequency of spiteful or vindictive behavior; a score of 1 (Just a little true; Occasionally) is used to reflect the frequency expressed in the DSM-5. Criterion status score requirements are updated on the Conners CBRS–SR; a score of 1 now also contributes to the Symptom Count.

Major Depressive Episode

Criterion A1 includes hopelessness among the examples of subjective report of depressed mood.1

An existing Conners CBRS item that accounts for a hopeless manifestation of depressed mood has been assigned to the Symptom Count, raw score, and T-score.

Manic Episode Increased goal-directed activity or increased energy is a symptom covered by Criterion A.

An existing Conners CBRS item for Criterion B6 (i.e., increase in goal-directed activity or psychomotor agitation) has been integrated into the Symptom Count for Criterion A (see Table 7). The raw score formula that is used to calculate the Manic Episode T-score is unaffected by this addition (i.e., the item is summed only once in calculating the raw score for Manic Episode).

Table 1. (continued) Changes to the DSM Symptom Scales

Symptom Scale Change to DSM-5 Change to Conners CBRS

Mixed Episode Mixed Episode is removed from the DSM-5 Bipolar and Related Disorders section and has been replaced with:• a “With mixed features” specifier that

outlines manic symptoms that would lead to a classification of Depressive Episode, with mixed features

• a “With mixed features” specifier that outlines depressive symptoms that would lead to a classification of Manic Episode, with mixed features.

The Mixed Episode section of the Conners CBRS reports has been removed.

When the Symptom Count is probably met for Major Depressive Episode, a note beneath the DSM-5 Manic Episode Symptom Table in the Conners CBRS reports highlights the manic symptoms that comprise mixed features and details which of these symptoms are Indicated, May be Indicated, or Not Indicated. Interpretative considerations are outlined in a separate section of the Assessment report labeled Mixed Features.

When the Manic Episode Symptom Count is probably met, a note appears below the DSM-5 Major Depressive Episode Symptom Table in the Conners CBRS reports. This note highlights the depressive symptoms that are Indicated, May be Indicated, or Not Indicated for the mixed features specifier. A separate Mixed Features section in the Assessment report outlines interpretative considerations related to this specifier.

Social Anxiety Disorder (Social Phobia)

All of Criteria A, B, C, and D are required. For the Symptom Count to be probably met, the Conners CBRS item responses must result in all of the criteria being designated as Indicated/May be Indicated.

Criterion A no longer requires evidence of the capacity for age appropriate social relationships.

The Conners CBRS item, “Is unable to develop peer relationships” (parent and teacher form), “I get along with people once I am comfortable with them” (self-report form), has been dropped from the Symptom Count for Social Phobia.

DSM-IV-TR, Criterion A is split into two components: (1) the feared social situation (Criterion A); and (2) the feared reaction or behavior (Criterion B).

• Conners CBRS items measuring these different components were consequently reapplied to the appropriate criterion (see Table 11).

• To cover the new emphasis in Criterion B on fear of negative evaluation, the item “Worries about what others think of him/her” was added to the Symptom Count (see Table 11).

• Criterion C qualifies Criterion A, stating that “the social situations almost always provoke fear or anxiety.”

• Criterion C specifies how fear or anxiety may be expressed in children (i.e., “by crying, tantrums, freezing, clinging, shrinking, or failing to speak in social situations”).

• The same item on the Conners CBRS applies both to Criterion A and C (“Panics about social situations or when doing things in front of other people”), addressing the feared social situation component, as well as the qualification that fear or anxiety almost always occurs in response to the feared social situation.

• An item that measures these child-specific expressions of fear or anxiety (i.e., “Cries, throws tantrums, avoids, or freezes in social situations with unfamiliar people”) contributes to symptoms for Criterion C.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder

• Two symptom criteria (DSM-IV-TR A2 and A4) are removed from Obsessions, Criterion A.

• Wording for Criterion A1 has been modified such that the obsessions cause marked anxiety or distress in most individuals.

The item that measured the DSM-IV-TR Obsessions, Criterion A2 symptom (“Worries about things that are not real life problems”), has been deleted from the OCD Symptom Count. The item that formerly measured the DSM-IV-TR Obsessions, Criterion A4 symptom (“Creates thoughts or pictures that get stuck in his/her mind” [parent and teacher report] or “I create upsetting thoughts or pictures that get stuck in my mind” [self-report]) has been repurposed in the DSM-5 scale to measure Obsessions, Criterion A1 (see Table 12). That is, to account for the change in language to Criterion A1 (that obsessions cause marked anxiety or distress in most individuals), an item was added that measures obsessions, separate from the upsetting reaction to these thoughts, urges, or images. The parent and teacher version of this item does not require that obsessive thoughts are anxiety-provoking or cause distress, thus accounting for the qualifier that only “in most individuals” is distress associated with obsessions. Because the equivalent item on the self-report includes the term “upsetting,” if Criterion A1 (item 94 or 31) is not endorsed on the self-report, follow-up is recommended to determine if the individual has obsessive thoughts that do not cause anxiety or distress.

Autism Spectrum Disorder

The Pervasive Developmental Disorders, including Autistic Disorder and Asperger’s Disorder, are reorganized into one all-encompassing classification: ASD.

DSM Symptom Scales for Autistic Disorder and Asperger’s Disorder are reorganized into a DSM-5 Symptom Scale for ASD, which assesses (1) deficits in social communication and social interaction, and (2) restricted repetitive patterns of behavior, interests, and activities. Items on the Conners CBRS are restructured accordingly. Two items—“Was a late talker” on the parent form, and “Uses spoken language to communicate” on the teacher form—no longer apply to symptom criteria and are neither included in the Symptom Count, nor in the raw score and T-score calculations.

Criteria regarding the absence of “spontaneous make-believe or social imitative play,” and “persistent preoccupation with parts of objects” are removed.

Items covering these concepts (i.e., “Lacks varied, spontaneous make-believe play” and “Is over-focused or over-interested in one part of an object or toy”) do not contribute to the Symptom Count for ASD, because this count is based on direct association of items to symptom criteria in the DSM-5.2

1 Not all behavioral examples noted in the DSM symptom criteria are represented on the Conners CBRS DSM Symptom Scales. Expert review of DSM-5 criteria led to the determination that because hopelessness is a main feature of the cognitive theory of depression (Beck, Rush, Shaw, & Emery, 1979), and cognitive-behavioral therapy is “currently the treatment of choice for anxiety and depressive disorders in children and adoles-cents” (Compton, March, Brent, Albano, Weersing, & Curry, 2004, p. 930), it is important to measure this concept on the Conners CBRS.2 Expert review of changes to diagnostic criteria for ASD drove the determination that although the language of these items no longer directly corresponds to DSM-5 symptom criteria, the concepts covered by the items represent core aspects of the disorder. The absence of social-imitative play is a symptom that is related to the broad category of deficits in social communication and social interaction, and captures an important devel-opmental precursor to the types of behaviors assessed by ASD, Criterion A (e.g., Fuchs, 2013; Gallese & Goldman, 1998; Rizzolatti & Craighero, 2004; Toth, Munson, Meltzoff, & Dawson, 2006). Similarly, a focus on parts of objects applies broadly to the different areas covered by ASD, Criterion B, restricted repetitive patterns of behaviors, interests, or activities: A child that becomes focused on one part of an object or toy may be doing so due to the stereotyped or repetitive use of it (Criterion B1), the ritualized pattern or sense of sameness provided by it (Criterion B2), a preoccupation with the object itself (Criterion B3), or the smell or feel of the object (Criterion B4). As such, these two items are included in the raw score (and therefore, T-score) calculation for ASD.

Page 31: C. Keith Conners, Ph.D. DSM-5 UPDATEDSM-5 Symptom Scales). Symptom criteria covered by the Conners CBRS for CD, GAD, and Separation Anxiety Disorder did not change (see Tables 3, 9

DSM-5 Update

29

Standardization and Reliability of the Conners CBRS DSM-5 Symptom ScalesNorm Construction. The construction of the norms for the Conners CBRS DSM-5 Symptom Scales that changed (i.e., Major Depressive Episode, Social Anxiety Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and Autism Spectrum Disorder) was performed in the same fashion as for the original scales of the instrument using the same normative samples (see chapter 10 of the Conners CBRS Manual, Standardization). Actual construction of the norms was conducted by rater type (i.e., Parent, Teacher, and Self-Report) for each of the age and gender groups (see Tables 15 to 17 for the normative samples’ means and standard devia-tions, for scales that have changed from the DSM-IV-TR to the DSM-5. See Tables 10.34 to 10.45 in the Conners CBRS Manual for the means and standard deviations of the other Conners CBRS scales). Note that the means presented in these tables have been statistically smoothed (see chapter 10 in the Conners CBRS Manual for more information on the smoothing process). Standard scores (T-scores with a mean of 50 and standard deviation of 10) were computed for each norm group, as were empirical percentiles.

For scales that have changed, Pearson product-moment correlation coefficients between the DSM-5 Symptom Scales and the DSM-IV-TR Symptom Scales of the Conners CBRS were computed and are reported in Table 14. These values ranged from .909 to .998 across norm groups and rater versions.

Internal Consistency. Cronbach’s alpha coefficients for the DSM-5 Symptom Scales were calculated for each norm group using the same procedure as for the DSM-IV-TR Scale. Reliability coefficients were estimated for the total sample, as well as separately for the general population and clinical samples. Results are similar to the DSM-IV-TR Symptom Scales values for each respective rater version and norm group. The Conners CBRS−P, Conners CBRS−T, and Conners CBRS−SR were observed to demonstrate moderate-to-high levels of internal consistency for the vast majority of the revised scales. Reliability coefficients are shown in Tables 18 to 26 for scales that have changed from the DSM-IV-TR to the DSM-5. See Tables 11.2 to 11.4 in the Conners CBRS Manual for the reliability coefficients for the other Conners CBRS scales.

Standard Error of Measurement. The standard error of measurement (SEM) serves as another tool for measuring the stability of observed scores. SEM provides an indication of the amount of variability that may exist in the observed score, and how much that score may differ from a theoretical true score. More information about SEM can be found in chapter 11 of the Conners CBRS Manual, Reliability.

Tables 27 to 32 present the SEM values for scales that have changed due to changes in the DSM-5. Tables 27 to 28 display the SEM values for the total sample, and Tables 29 to 32 display the SEM values for the general population and clinical samples. For most purposes, SEM values for T-scores are sufficient; however, raw score values are provided for research purposes.

SummaryWith the release of the DSM-5, it was necessary to review the Conners CBRS Manual and associated materials (i.e., Conners CBRS Software Program and online components, including reports) to assess the need to update the DSM Symptom Scales. The changes outlined in this update align scoring and interpretation of the DSM Symptom Scales with diagnostic criteria in the DSM-5. This supplement details considerations that need to be taken into account when using the DSM-5 Scoring option to score and interpret the DSM Symptom Scales. Additionally, this supplement outlines the psychometric properties of the revised scales, namely, Major Depressive Episode, Social Anxiety Disorder (Social Phobia), Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, and Autism Spectrum Disorder.
