Young Mania Rating Scale

Clients may use it to determine the severity of their mania since the test can be self-administered. However, those who may find it the most useful are mental health practitioners such as therapists, psychiatrists, and psychologists.

No. You can use the Young Mania Rating Scale to screen the patient’s symptoms, track the progress, and check the effectiveness of a patient’s treatment plan or medication, but this shouldn't be used as a sole assessment for diagnosis.

Since you'll be conducting an interview to tick the ratings on the scale, it might take 30 minutes to complete it.
