Objective: Few neuropsychological measurement tools of attention can assess preschoolers despite adequate instruments' potential to facilitate early diagnostic processes, which are currently demanding. This study's objective was to evaluate the QbMini, an attention-deficit hyperactive disorder (ADHD) measurement tool for preschoolers. Method: QbMini performances of 37 5-year-old ADHD patients, 55 healthy controls, and 26 children with specific language impairment (SLI) were compared using univariate analyses of variance. The test's predictive power was evaluated using receiver operating characteristics (ROC) analyses and compared to a parental rating scale. Finally, the scales were compared by correlating their respective scores. Results: The QbMini measures ADHD symptoms and reliably differentiates between healthy children and patients, but not between children with ADHD and children with SLI. Conclusion: The QbMini can indicate presence and strength of ADHD symptoms, but fails to diagnose ADHD. It measures symptoms in a different way than parental ratings and might be stronger in distinguishing between hyperactivity and inattention.

QbMini 是多动症评估的有效工具吗?

目标:尽管有足够的工具促进早期诊断过程的潜力,但目前很少有神经心理学注意力测量工具可以评估学龄前儿童。本研究的目的是评估 QbMini,这是一种针对学龄前儿童的注意力缺陷多动障碍 (ADHD) 测量工具。方法:使用单变量方差分析比较 37 名 5 岁多动症患者、55 名健康对照者和 26 名特定语言障碍 (SLI) 儿童的 QbMini 表现。使用接收器操作特性 (ROC) 分析评估测试的预测能力,并与父母评级量表进行比较。最后,通过关联它们各自的分数来比较这些量表。结果:QbMini 测量 ADHD 症状并可靠地区分健康儿童和患者,​​但不能区分 ADHD 儿童和 SLI 儿童。结论:QbMini 可以指示 ADHD 症状的存在和强度,但不能诊断 ADHD。它以不同于父母评级的方式衡量症状,并且在区分多动和注意力不集中方面可能更强。
