Many developmental and mental disorders significantly impair the ability of children and adolescents to successfully function in society. Among several scales evaluating social performance, the Social Skills Improvement System by Gresham and Elliot evaluates the social functioning of children from ages 3 to 18 years. It has three forms per child - to be filled in by the child himself/herself, by the parent and the teacher. Each form has 75, 79, and 83 items, respectively, assessed on a four-point system.
