Minimal Behavioral Dysregulation
Expressions activating this band are largely neutral, descriptive, or unrelated to problems with behavior or emotional control. They may refer to general preferences, everyday topics, or contextual statements without indicating disruptive conduct or interference in functioning.

The disturbance is recognizable and consequential, but is framed mainly through specific situations and daily management challenges.
High Behavioral Dysregulation
Expressions activating this band describe persistent or severe problems with emotional and behavioral control that disrupt close relationships, draw outside attention, or interfere with everyday functioning. They include difficulty managing feelings, conflict with partner or family members, repeated problem behavior, and impairment significant enough to affect daily life.
