Benefits

Addresses situational variability: scales analyze an individual’s behavior using multiple perspectives (i.e., examinee's self-perspective, teacher's perspective, and parents' perspective).
Items are more specific and contextual: scales include items that are more specific and ask about difficulties in a specific context (e.g., difficulty remembering what has been read).
Directly and more accurately reports symptoms: items focus on severity of specific behaviors as opposed to frequency.
