Pediatric Scales and User Guide

The Vanderbilt Fatigue Scale-Pediatrics are a suite of questionnaires designed to assess listening-related fatigue in children ages 6-17 years. The Vanderbilt Fatigue Scale-Children (VFS-C) is a self-report version for completion by the child. In addition, there are two proxy-reporter versions: the Vanderbilt Fatigue Scale-Parent (VFS-P) and Vanderbilt Fatigue Scale-Teacher (VFS-T) for completion by the child's parent and teacher, respectively. The scales are freely available for clinical and educational use and can be downloaded below. For more information about administration and scoring, please download and review the VFS-Pediatrics User Guide.
