Introduction: Although the Aberrant Behavior Checklist (ABC) is one of the most widely used behavioral rating scales among people with developmental disabilities, very few studies have examined the factor structure of the non-English versions.Methods: The construct validity of the Norwegian ABC was examined in a clinical sample of children and adolescents with neurological and neurodevelopmental disorders (N = 339). Diagnoses were obtained from direct interdisciplinary assessments in our neuro-pediatric clinics. Results: In an exploratory factor analysis, 46 of the 58 items (79%) loaded most heavily on four of the five original factors in the English version. Confirmatory factor analysis revealed less-than-optimal fit indices for the five-factor solution. Internal consistency was adequate to excellent for all subscales (α range = .76–.95). The ABC showed meaningful overlap and differentiation with the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire, the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function, the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, and full scale IQ. There were positive correlations between several of the ABC subscales and diagnoses of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, autism spectrum disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, and emotional disorder Conclusion: Satisfactory psychometric properties were found for the ABC, with the exception of the Inappropriate Speech factor, in a mixed sample of higher functioning children and adolescents with neurodevelopmental and neurological disorders.

简介：尽管异常行为检查表（ABC）是发育障碍者中使用最广泛的行为评级量表之一，但很少有研究检查非英语版本的因素结构。方法：在患有神经系统疾病和神经发育障碍的儿童和青少年（N  = 339）的临床样本中检查挪威ABC的构建有效性。诊断是从我们神经儿科诊所的直接跨学科评估中获得的。结果：在探索性因素分析中，58个项目中的46个（占79％）在英语版本的五个原始因素中有四个负荷最大。验证性因素分析显示五因素解决方案的拟合指数不理想。内部一致性足以满足所有分量表的要求（α范围= .76–.95）。ABC在优势与困难问卷，执行功能行为评估量表，葡萄园适应性行为量表和全面智商上显示出有意义的重叠和差异。有几个ABC量表和注意力缺失/多动症，自闭症谱系障碍，对立违抗性障碍的诊断和情绪障碍呈正相关结论：在具有较高功能的儿童和青少年神经发育和神经系统疾病的混合样本中，除了不适当的言语因素外，ABC的心理测验特性令人满意。
