The Children's Global Assessment Scale exhibits high interrater and test-retest reliability, as well as high discriminant and concurrent validity.
“CGAS exhibits high interrater and test-retest reliability, as well as high discriminant and concurrent validity [34-36].”
From The Impact of Parental Support on Adherence to Therapist-Assisted Internet-Delivered Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in Primary Care for Adolescents With Anxiety: Naturalistic 12-Month Follow-Up Study (2025) · cites this paper as [36]
The Statistical Analysis and Agreement on Other Diagnostic Parameters sections report high interrater correlations for current and six-month CGAS ratings; Table 4 labels these test–retest reliability results. The paper does not report discriminant or concurrent validity for the CGAS, so those parts of the claim are unsupported. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
