Child Dissociative Checklist (CDC)
The CDC is a screening tool completed by adult informants (parents, teachers, clinicians) to assess dissociative symptoms in children aged 5 to 12. It is frequently used in clinical settings to identify children with dissociative difficulties, which may be related to traumatic experiences.

Scoring & interpretation
Each item is rated 0 (not true), 1 (somewhat or sometimes true), or 2 (very true). Scores are summed to give a total score: a high score suggests a significant presence of dissociative symptoms. A score at the cutoff (usually 12 or higher) calls for a thorough clinical evaluation.
