The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) is a self-report inventory behavioral screening questionnaire for children and adolescents ages 2 through 17 years old, developed by United Kingdom child psychiatrist Robert N. Goodman. The SDQ has been translated into more than 80 languages, including Spanish, Chinese, Russian, and Portuguese.[1] Overall, the SDQ has been proven to have satisfactory construct and concurrent validity.[2][3]

There are three versions of the SDQ: a short form, a longer form with impact supplement, and a follow-up form designed for use after a behavioral intervention. The questionnaire takes 3–10 minutes to complete.
