Screening questionnaires and protocols
Screening questionnaires developed and translated by the GNC for use in both clinical and research settings.
NEW GUIDELINES
Notice: ESSENCE Screening Questionnaires (15th June 2026)
The ESSENCE screening questionnaires are no longer available for free use. Access to, and use of, these instruments is now managed through ESSENCE-IN.com and is chargeable on a per-use or package basis unless by explicit agreement - this includes any paper copies that are in circulation.
All requests to use the instruments must be directed to hello@essence-in.com or accessed at https://essence-in.com/
Development
At the GNC (and previously the Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry) we have developed a number of instruments intended for use in screening and diagnostic practice in the field of child neuropsychiatry/ESSENCE both in clinical work and research.
Languages
We strive to translate all of our screening questionnaires into as many languages as possible so our instruments can be used globally in both research and clinical settings. If you wish to use our questionnaires but notice it is not available in the language you require, and wish to work with us on this project, please contact Anna Spyrou anna.spyrou@gnc.gu.se
