QbTest for ADHD Evaluation

Objective Support for ADHD Assessment
At Solidbase Behavioral Health, we may use the QbTest as part of a comprehensive evaluation for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
QbTest is a computerized assessment that combines attention and impulse-control tasks with objective measurements of movement. It provides additional information that may help a qualified clinician understand patterns associated with ADHD.
What Does the QbTest Measure?
During the assessment, you complete a computer-based task while a specialized system tracks your performance and movement.
Depending on the version used, QbTest can provide information about areas such as:
- Attention – ability to maintain focus and respond appropriately to the task
- Impulsivity – tendency to respond too quickly or make incorrect responses
- Activity level – patterns of movement during the assessment
The results are compared with age- and sex-adjusted reference data to help identify patterns that may be consistent with ADHD.
Is QbTest an ADHD Diagnosis?
No. QbTest does not diagnose ADHD by itself.
ADHD is a clinical diagnosis based on a comprehensive assessment of symptoms, developmental history, functional impairment, and information from appropriate sources. The clinician may also consider other conditions that can cause symptoms similar to ADHD.
QbTest is best viewed as an additional objective assessment tool, rather than a standalone diagnostic test.
What to Expect During a QbTest
The QbTest is completed on a computer and generally involves responding to specific visual or auditory stimuli according to the instructions provided.
A specialized camera or sensor system may track your movements while you complete the task. The assessment is designed to be straightforward and does not require extensive preparation.
Your clinician will explain the results and discuss how they fit with your overall clinical evaluation.
Why Use QbTest?
Objective testing may provide additional information about attention, impulsivity, and activity during a standardized task. When combined with a thorough clinical assessment, the results may help support clinical decision-making and treatment planning.
QbTest may be particularly useful as one component of an ADHD evaluation, but results should always be interpreted in the context of the individual’s symptoms and history.
ADHD Evaluation at Solidbase Behavioral Health
At Solidbase Behavioral Health, we take a comprehensive and individualized approach to ADHD assessment. When clinically appropriate, QbTest may be incorporated alongside clinical interviews, symptom assessments, developmental history, and evaluation of functioning across different settings.
Our goal is to understand the whole person—not just a test result or diagnosis—and develop a treatment plan based on each patient’s individual needs.
Take the Next Step
If you or your child is experiencing difficulties with attention, organization, impulsivity, hyperactivity, or executive functioning, a comprehensive ADHD evaluation can help clarify the underlying concerns.
