This link should get you to the papers written on the Arabic forms of the SDQ. I think there have been 5 or so.

Thanks, Thomas. I did a search and didn't find any papers that provided or mentioned validated cut-off scores for the SDQ self-report Arabic version. More common is to use cut-offs validated on a different version (e.g., parent report for younger children) or different population (e.g., US or UK).

Hello

I found this study with an arabic sample with parent and child pairs between the ages of 8 and 17. I hope you find it useful.

The Arabic Mood and Feelings Questionnaire: Psychometrics and Validity in a Clinical Sample

Thanks very much. I just requested the full text from the authors. From the abstract, however, it looks like they set cut-offs for measures other than the SDQ and used the SDQ to calculate convergent validity (I'm assuming they correlated the scales). Not clear to me whether they established a clinical cut-off for the SDQ as well.
