Description

The 24-item Behavior and Symptom Identification Scale, BASIS-24®, is a more succinct, reliable and readable at a lower grade level modification of the BASIS-32®. It is a behavioral health assessment tool used to measure the change in consumer self-reported symptom and problem difficulty over the course of treatment.

Abstract

The BASIS-24 demonstrated adequate reliability (coefficient α values for combined clinical sample across subscales ranged from 0.75 to 0.91), validity and responsiveness to change (effect size for change of the BASIS-24 was 0.56 compared with 0.48 for BSI Global Severity Index).
