The Adolescent SASSI (SASSI-A2) should be used with youth between the age of 12 and 18 years. Exceptions can be made. For example, it may be appropriate to administer the SASSI-3 (adult version) to a 17 year old who no longer lives with his/her parents and is full self-supporting. On the other hand, the SASSI-A2 may be more appropriate to use with an 18 year old in high school who is still dependent on his or her parents.
