(INfORM) Group; International Association for Dental Research Methods: A modified Delphi method was used to survey 23 international TMD experts and four international experts in pain-­related psychological factors for consensus re- garding assessment tools for psychosocial functioning and pain-­related disability in children and adolescents. The TMD experts reviewed 29 Axis II statements at round 1, 13 at round 2 and 2 at round 3. Agreement was set at 80% for first-­round consen- sus level and 70% for each of the second and third rounds. The psychological experts completed a complementary Delphi survey to reach a consensus on tools to use to assess more complex psychological domains in children and adolescents. For the psy- chological experts, the first round included 10 open-­ended questions on preferred screening tools for depression, anxiety, catastrophising, sleep problems and stress in children (ages 6–­9 years old) and adolescents (ages 10–­19 years old) as well as on other domains suggested for investigation. In the second round, the psychological experts received a 9-­item questionnaire to prioritise the suggested instruments from most to least recommended. Results: The TMD experts, after three Delphi rounds, reached consensus on the changes of DC/TMD to create a form to evaluate Axis II in children and adolescents with TMD complaints. The psychological experts added tools to assess depression and anxiety, sleep disorders, catastrophising, stress and resilience. Conclusion: Through international expert consensus, this study adapted Axis II of the adult DC/TMD to assess psychosocial functioning and pain-­related disability in chil- dren and adolescents. The adapted Axis II protocols will be validated in the target populations. 1 | BAC KG RO U N D to developing psychological symptoms.8 Many studies have found a higher prevalence of psychological and social disorders in TMD Temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) include pain and/or impaired patients, when compared to general populations.9,10 In addition, 1 function and are often associated with psychological factors.
