The Health of the Nation Outcome Scales for Children and Adolescents HoNOSCA is a short clinicianrated measure developed for ordinary clinical practice with increasing use internationally. Several studies have investigated its psychometric properties but there are few data on its correspondence with other methods rated by other informants. We compared the HoNOSCA with the well-established Achenbach System of Empirically Based Assessment ASEBA questionnaires the Child Behavior Checklist CBCL the Teacher s Report Form TRF and the Youth Self-Report YSR . Methods Data on 153 patients aged 6-17 years at seven outpatient CAMHS clinics in Norway were analysed. Clinicians completed the HoNOSCA whereas parents teachers and adolescents filled in the ASEBA forms. HoNOSCA total score and nine of its scales were compared with similar ASEBA scales. With a multiple regression model we investigated how the ASEBA ratings predicted the clinician-rated HoNOSCA and whether the different informants scores made any unique contribution to the prediction of the HoNOSCA scales. Results We found moderate correlations between the total problems rated by the clinicians HoNOSCA and by the other informants ASEBA and good correspondence between eight of the nine HoNOSCA scales and the similar ASEBA scales. The exception was HoNOSCA scale 8 psychosomatic symptoms compared with the ASEBA somatic problems scale. In the regression analyses the CBCL and TRF total problems scores together .
