A number of rating instruments have been used in the assessment of obsessive compulsive symptoms. Common approaches include various self-reports, clinician-rated interviews and clinical-rated global impression scales. Self-report commonly used with obsessive children and adolescents is the Leyton Obsessional Inventory-Child Version (LOI). The standard and specific measure of the severity of obsessive-compulsive symptoms is the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS) and its modified version for children, the Children's Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (CY-BOCS).
