ABSTRACT

Objective: Psychometric and normative information is provided for the Sluggish Cognitive Tempo, Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Inattention, ADHD Hyperactivity/Impulsivity, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, Callous-Unemotional Behaviors (Limited Prosocial Emotions specifier), Anxiety, Depression, Social Impairment, Friendship Difficulties, and Academic Impairment Scales of the Child and Adolescent Behavior Inventory (CABI) with a nationally representative sample of U.S. children.

Method: Mothers of 2,056 kindergarten to sixth-grade children (M ± SD age = 8.49 ± 2.15 years; 49% girls) completed the CABI, and 307 randomly selected mothers completed the CABI again 4 weeks later.

Results: The 10-factor model (one factor for each CABI scale) provided a close fit for the total sample as well as for boys and girls separately. Each scale showed invariance of like-item loadings and thresholds for boys and girls across a 4-week interval with excellent test–retest factor correlations and no significant factor mean changes. Normative information (T-scores) is provided for the 10 scales separately for boys and girls, with test information functions supporting the use of the scales for screening purposes.

Conclusion: The normative information on the CABI provides support for the use of the 10 scales to inform the clinical care of individual children, with the positive psychometric properties of the scores providing additional support for the use of the scales for research. Copies of the scale and norms are available for free to clinicians and researchers.

关于美国儿童全国代表性样本中儿童和青少年行为清单的心理计量和规范信息

摘要

目的:为迟钝的认知节奏,注意力缺陷/多动障碍(ADHD)注意力不足,注意力缺陷多动症多动/冲动,对立的违抗障碍,无礼,无情绪的行为(有限的亲社会情绪说明者),焦虑,抑郁,社交障碍等提供心理和规范信息,儿童和青少年行为量表(CABI)的友谊难度和学业障碍量表,以及美国儿童的全国代表性样本。

方法:2,056所幼儿园至六年级儿童的母亲(M ±  SD 年龄 = 8.49±2.15岁; 49%的女孩)完成了CABI,随机选择的307名母亲在4周后再次完成了CABI。

结果:10因子模型(每个CABI量表一个因子)非常适合总样本以及男孩和女孩。每个量表在4周的时间间隔内显示男孩和女孩的相似项目负荷和阈值不变,具有出色的测试-再测试因子相关性,并且均值无显着变化。分别为男孩和女孩的10个量表提供了规范信息(T分数),测试信息功能支持将这些量表用于筛查目的。

结论:CABI上的规范性信息为使用10个量表提供信息以支持对个别儿童的临床护理提供了支持,并且评分的积极心理特征为使用量表进行研究提供了额外的支持。临床医生和研究人员可免费获得量表和规范的副本。
