There are three ways to make use of the AF-CBT assessment measures remotely via the AF-CBT website: downloading fillable measures and completing them on a shared screen with the client, downloading fillable measures and e-mailing those measures to the client, or completing the measure by phone and scoring the measure online.
Fillable Assessment Measures
To use fillable measures, save the measures that you would like to send to a client below to a folder that you can easily access later.
InstructionsAlabama Parenting Questionnaire (APQ SF+CP)
Brief CAP Inventory Form (B-CAP)
Child PTSD Symptom Scale, DSM-V Version (CPSS-V)
Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ)
Send the Measures to your Client
Include the PDFs of the assessments and instructions as an attachment to an e-mail that you send to your client's e-mail address. Alternatively, you can ask the client to download the assessment PDFs directly from this page.
Client Steps
Ask the client to:
- Download the assessment PDFs to a location that they can easily access later.
- Open them in Adobe Reader (or another program) and complete the measure(s).
- Save a copy of their completed measures by another name or to another location.
- Include the completed measures as an attachment to an e-mail to you.
Topic Tracker
This form is used to document the delivery of key AF-CBT topical content and the level of participation/progress shown by the family after each treatment session/contact. It should also be shared with your supervisor to support conversations about who to enhance the delivery of AF-CBT with each case.
DownloadAudio Recording Options
Below are some options for audio recording while not seeing clients in person. We are always open to other ideas. All options assume that permission have been obtained from the client and that agency policies are being followed.
- Use telehealth to record, either uploading an audio/video file to the AF-CBT secure server or sending a link and password to the trainer to access the recording on your server.
- Record the therapist’s end of a phone call or video call using a phone, recorder, tablet, or computer. We have had a therapist upload to our secure server a recording in which only the therapist side of the recording is audible, which is fine; that's what we're rating for fidelity.
- Postpone recording until another time.
