The School Refusal Assessment Scale-Revised (SRAS-R) is a tool used to assess and understand the reasons behind a child’s refusal to attend school. It is particularly valuable in cases where a child’s school refusal is not due to physical illness but rather stems from emotional or psychological factors. The SRAS-R helps professionals, such as school counselors, psychologists, or social workers, gather information about the child’s experiences, emotions, and thoughts related to school attendance, allowing for a more comprehensive assessment and the development of targeted interventions to address the underlying issues.
