QBCheck is a computer-based, objective test used as part of an ADHD assessment. It measures three areas commonly associated with ADHD:

Attention (focus and concentration)

Impulsivity (acting without thinking)

Activity level (movement and restlessness)

The test looks a bit like a simple computer game and uses a webcam or motion-tracking system to measure attention and movement while the task is being completed.

QBCheck does not diagnose ADHD on its own. It is one part of a comprehensive clinical assessment, alongside clinical interviews, questionnaires, developmental history and (where appropriate) reports from school or work.

The test takes approximately 15–20 minutes to complete.

The patient sits at a computer or laptop with a webcam in a quiet room.

They complete a simple attention task while the software tracks their responses and physical movement.

The results are compared to a large database of people of the same age and biological sex, both with and without ADHD, to help the clinician interpret the pattern of performance.

The results are then reviewed and interpreted by a qualified clinician as part of the overall assessment.

To help ensure accurate results, we recommend that:

The patient is well rested and has eaten beforehand.

They wear any glasses or hearing aids they normally use.

They do not wear sparkly or reflective clothing (such as sequins or reflective fabrics), as this can interfere with the motion-tracking system.

Younger patients may wish to bring something familiar to occupy them while waiting for their appointment.

QBCheck provides objective data that:

Supports the clinician’s understanding of attention, impulsivity and activity levels.

Helps compare performance to peers of the same age and biological sex.

Can be repeated over time to help monitor treatment response or changes in symptoms.

It adds an objective layer of information to complement clinical judgement and reported experiences from home, school, or work.

QBCheck is not a diagnostic test and cannot confirm or rule out ADHD on its own.

It does not replace clinical assessment and does not count as a diagnostic domain under DSM-5 criteria.

Results are always interpreted by a qualified clinician and discussed with the patient or family as part of the full assessment process.

The test is safe, non-invasive, and suitable for children aged 6 and above.
