Clinical intent

CORE stands for “Clinical Outcomes in Routine Evaluation” and the CORE system comprises tools and thinking to support monitoring of change and outcomes in routine practice in psychotherapy, counselling and any other work attempting to promote psychological recovery, health and wellbeing.

The Young Person's CORE (YP-CORE) is a ten item measure designed for use with the 11-16 years age range.

Clinical interpretation

In addition, scores on the CORE‐10 can be divided into categories of distress: Healthy (0–5), low (6–10), mild (11–14), moderate (15–19), moderate‐to‐severe (20–24), and severe (25 and above).
