Abstract: In this study, we sought to determine if the "Scales for Assessing Emotional Disturbance -- Third Edition" ("SAED-3"; Epstein et al., 2020) demonstrated adequate validity using criterion validation techniques. The associations between the "SAED-3" subscales and composite scores were examined in relation to similar scores from the "Behavior Assessment System for Children -- Second Edition" ("BASC-2"; Reynolds & Kamphaus, 2004) and the "Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire" ("SDQ"; Goodman, R., 1997). "SAED-3" ratings were conducted with either the "BASC-2" or "SDQ" with 121 students ages 6 to 17 years. The overall criterion prediction evidence of the "SAED-3" was strong, particularly with the "BASC-2" Behavioral Symptoms Index, "SDQ" Total Difficulties ratings, and Inappropriate Behaviors and Inability to Learn subtests. These results provide further support for the use of the "SAED-3" in determining the emotional and behavioral problems of children and adolescents.
