Learn more about the development of the BRIEF 2

The BRIEF 2 is an enhanced rating scale of executive function that continues to be as efficient, comprehensive and consistent with current models of executive function as its predecessor but now includes a quick screener and enhanced features.

The BRIEF 2 includes a 12-item screening version and updated norms for the Parent, Teach and Self-Report forms based on a large, diverse sample.

Features and Benefits

  • Provides an overview of the BRIEF 2 model of executive function that leads to assessment and intervention
  • Reviews the development, reliability and validity of the BRIEF 2
  • Follows two case examples of students with executive function difficulties and describes screen, basic and advanced interpretation
  • Increased parallelism in item content, with most items shared between the Parent Form and Teacher Form and approximately half of the items also shared with the Self-Report Form.
  • Illustrates the fundamental steps to interpreting scores and introduces optional interpretive steps
  • Provides a step-by-step guide to interpret scores and a parallel sentence-by-sentence guide to help practitioners write findings in reports using language that is concise, accurate and clear to parents and teachers
  • Contains more concise scales, which reduce the burden on the parent, teacher and adolescent respondent.
  • Describes effective executive function intervention models and programs
  • Parent, Teacher and Self-Report forms are now discussed in one Manual and have increased parallel structure. This content overlap, combined with the presentation of rater discrepancy base rates, makes examining multiple rater perspectives easy.

The BRIEF 2 Interpretive Guide

The BRIEF 2 Interpretive Guide is intended to facilitate the use of the BRIEF 2.  Written by the authors of the BRIEF 2 in a straight-forward, reader-friendly style, this durable hardcover book is designed to assist school psychologist as they assess, plan interventions for and monitor students with executive dysfunction.

Test Structure

Three domains evaluate cognitive, behavioural, and emotional regulation, and a Global Executive Composite score provides and overall snapshot of executive functioning. BRIEF 2 includes 10 clinical scales such as

  • Working Memory
  • Plan/Organise
Parent & Teacher forms
  • Initiate

Technical Information

Standardization sample (N = 3,603 total ratings) is matched by age, gender, ethnicity, and parent education level to U.S. Census statistic while clinical data provide support for evidence-based assessment and interpretation of clinical profiles. Reliable change statistics make it easy to measure the significance of change in scores over time.
