What is this test for?
It helps the teenager put words to attention at school and during homework, organisation and forgetfulness, impulsivity, restlessness and emotional regulation, as well as their impact at school, at home and with friends. It is an orientation toward an appointment, not a verdict.
Who is it for?
For teenagers aged 12 to 17 who are wondering, ideally supported by a parent. The result concerns the teen and feeds none of the app’s “adult” recommendations.
How does it work?
The teen answers 15 statements thinking about the past few months. The result is never a diagnosis: it indicates whether the signals are numerous (talk to a trusted adult, then a doctor, paediatrician or child psychiatrist), present but to be clarified, or unlikely. Everything is computed in the browser; nothing is sent.
The science behind this test
The themes draw on ADHD criteria (ICD-11 6A05, DSM-5-TR) and on French (HAS 2024) and international (NICE NG87) guidance: the diagnosis is clinical, multi-context, and never rests on a questionnaire alone. Clinicians’ tools (Young DIVA-5, Conners, SNAP-IV, Vanderbilt) are not reproduced here.
Full transparency
A MoodTrakr orientation questionnaire, built from DSM-5-TR / ICD-11 criteria and the cited guidance. It does not replace professionals’ tools (Young DIVA-5, Conners, SNAP-IV, Vanderbilt) and makes no diagnosis. In adolescence, many things mimic ADHD (sleep, stress, a hard patch).
- MoodTrakr orientation questionnaire, not validated: it helps put things into words and decide to talk about them, it does not screen.
- It is for 12–17-year-olds, ideally filled in with a parent’s support; the diagnosis itself stays clinical.
- Your answers concern only you, stay encrypted on this device and feed no “adult” recommendation.
- Many things mimic ADHD in adolescence (sleep, anxiety, a hard time): only an assessment can tell the difference.
The reference tests used by professionals
This questionnaire replaces none of the tools used in consultation. Here are the ones professionals actually use:
- A doctor, then a specialist assessment — GP or paediatrician → child psychiatrist, specialised centre: the diagnosis is clinical and multi-source
- Young DIVA-5, Conners, SNAP-IV, Vanderbilt — the interviews and questionnaires clinicians use (parents/teachers) — under copyright, we do not reproduce them
Frequently asked questions
Can my teen fill it in alone?
Yes, it is written for the teenager. It is even better as a pair: a parent adds a complementary view, especially on how long it has lasted and the different places it shows up.
Does a high result mean ADHD?
No. No questionnaire makes the diagnosis. A marked result simply invites you to talk to a trusted adult, then a doctor, who will refer you if needed.
Does the result appear in the app’s recommendations?
No. Because it concerns the teen, not the adult user, it stays separate and feeds no personal “adult” suggestion.
Is it confidential?
Yes. Answers are processed only in the browser and are not sent to any server.
