FrSBe: Frontal Systems Behavior Scale

The FrSBe fills a gap in the assessment of frontal systems behavioral syndromes by providing a means to identify and quantify disordered natural behavior so that problems may be targeted for treatment.

Features and benefits

-Provides a brief, reliable, and valid measure of three frontal systems behavioral syndromes: apathy, disinhibition, and executive dysfunction.

-Quantifies behavioral changes over time by including both baseline (retrospective) and current assessments of behavior.

-Includes a total score as well as scores on three subscales that correspond to the three frontal systems behavioral syndromes.

Test Structure

-This 46-item behavior rating scale is much easier and less time-consuming to administer than a neuropsychological test battery.

-Two hand-scorable, carbonless test booklets (self and family) are available. Items are written at a sixth-grade reading level. -Two profile forms (self and family) allow comparisons of behaviors pre- and post-injury/illness.
