I've just done the strengths and difficulties questionnaire for my ds (almost 5).

Emotional symptoms = abnormal
Conduct problems = abnormal
Hyperactivity Score = borderline
Peer Problems score = abnormal
Prosocial Behaviour = abnormal
Total difficulties= abnormal

Can anyone tell me what this means?

Not really, sorry. I'd say it's pointless for us to guess as well, as it's rather vague, isn't it? I imagine the answers themselves are helpful to whatever agency (or professional) gave your the questionnaire. They're going to have the best answers for you. The only answer we can offer is that obviously he's ticked a few boxes on most of the categories, but you already know that.

I've just found something that interprets it.

Diagnostic prediction
Any diagnosis - High risk
Emotional disorder (anxiety, depression etc.) - High risk
Behavioural disorder - High risk
Hyperactivity or concentration disorder - High risk

He scores zero on prosocial behaviour- it can't get any lower Sad
