The current study utilized survey data to determine if respondent characteristics and inter-rater agreement on measures of important relationships were associated with resilience among child welfare-involved youth. Youth and key adults (e.g., caregivers or caseworkers) each completed a multidimensional survey of youth well-being. Both responded to measures of sibling and peer relationships; youth also completed a brief resilience measure. Inter-rater agreement for sibling and peer relationship constructs were established through independent samples t-test, Pearson correlation coefficient, Cronbach's kappa and double-entry intraclass correlation coefficient. Linear regression models then examined associations of respondent and dyad characteristics to inter-rater disagreement, and inter-rater disagreement to youth reported resilience. Post hoc analyses probed interactions for respondent characteristics and inter-rater disagreement to youth resilience. Results indicate key adults overestimated the quality of youth's sibling relationships, and inter-rater disagreement was highest when the youth was older and the adult was a caregiver. Sibling rater disagreement was associated with higher youth reported resilience. For peer relationships, significant inter-rater disagreement was not observed. Higher relative disagreement, however, was associated with lower youth resilience. Findings suggest levels of inter-rater agreement may be an important consideration when assessing the well-being of youth in out-of-home care.

青少年在户外护理中的一致程度与主要成年人对兄弟姐妹关系的评价：受访者特征和关联对青年适应力的影响

目前的研究利用调查数据来确定受访者的特征和评估者间关于重要关系措施的一致性是否与参与儿童福利的青年的适应能力有关。青年和关键成年人（例如，照顾者或社会工作者）各自完成了一项青年福祉的多维调查。两者都对兄弟姐妹和同伴关系的测量做出了回应；青年还完成了一项简短的复原力措施。对兄弟和同伴关系构建跨评价者协议是通过独立样本建立ŧ-test、Pearson 相关系数、Cronbach's kappa 和复式类内相关系数。然后线性回归模型检查了受访者和二人特征与评估者间分歧的关联，以及评估者间分歧与青年报告弹性的关联。事后分析探讨了受访者特征的相互作用以及评估者间对青年复原力的分歧。结果表明，关键成年人高估了青少年兄弟姐妹关系的质量，当青少年年龄较大且成年人是照顾者时，评估者之间的分歧最大。兄弟姐妹评估者的分歧与更高的青年报告的弹性有关。对于同伴关系，未观察到严重的评分者间分歧。然而，较高的相对分歧与较低的青年适应力有关。
