- For SRS-2, CBCL, and TRF, a higher score indicates more severe impairment. For DCDQ, a higher score represents better functioning. For the SRS-2, a T score of 30 is the minimum obtainable. A total T score of 76 or higher is consistent with severe clinical-level symptomatology, a T score of 60 through 75 subclinical, and a T score of 59 or less as normal. For the CBCL and TRF, a T score of 50 is the minimum obtainable. A T score between 65 and 70 is considered borderline clinical and a score above 70 as clinical
