Results obtained from administering the Adolescent Menstrual Attitude Questionnaire to 860 pre‐ and 1,013 postmenarcheal girls from 49 randomly selected schools in a large western Canadian city are reported. Scores obtained for both the pre‐ and the postmenarcheal versions of the total scale and the subscales are presented by age and by grade. In addition, for postmenarcheal girls, the self‐report of menstrual symptoms gives insight into the prevalence of symptoms and the perception of symptom severity. Correlations between self‐reported symptoms with the Menstrual Symptoms subscale score and the total scale score add validity to the scale. These data may be used by clinicians for comparison when administering the scale to individuals or to groups.
