Measures of Children’s Mental Health &
Psychological Wellbeing in our portfolio
Measures of Children’s Mental Health & Psychological Wellbeing
provides the perfect platform for delving into the individual elements
that make up a child’s emotional health and wellbeing. To help identify
children that may need this type of assessment in the first place, the
Paediatric Index of Emotional Distress (page 62) is a brief and
easy-to-use self-rating scale that screens children and young people
for general emotional and psychological distress, making it ideal for
use prior to Measures of Children’s Mental Health and Psychological
Wellbeing. Combined with Pupil Attitudes to Self and School
(PASS) (pages 50–52), our all-age attitudinal survey that measures
pupils’ attitudes by looking at factors proven to be linked with key
educational goals, an overall profile of a pupil’s emotional health,
wellbeing and attitudes can be established to help inform appropriate
intervention programmes.
