In China there is an increasing need for suitable measures to evaluate clinical outcomes in adolescents’ psychological counselling processes. To satisfy this purpose, this study evaluated the Young Person’s Clinical Outcomes in Routine Evaluation (YP-CORE)’s psychometric properties in a Chinese context with two groups: psychiatric outpatients (clinical group: n = 232) and middle-school student controls (non-clinical group: n = 441). All the participants completed the YP-CORE, Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) and the depression subscale of the Revised Child Anxiety and Depression Scale (RCADS). The results found that the YP-CORE was highly acceptable and reliable with a two-factor solution consistent with original UK model. There were significant differences in mean YP-CORE scores by gender and age band, as well as distinct clinically significant change cut-off points. These findings suggest that the Chinese version of the YP-CORE is psychometrically acceptable for use in Chinese context
