For concurrent validity, the measure showed a high correlation with the SCARED. In ROC analysis, area under ROC curve was calculated as 0.934. Conclusion: It was concluded that Turkish version of the DSM-5 Severity Measure for Agoraphobia-Child Age 11-17 could be used as a valid and reliable tool both in clinical practice and for research purposes.
