ABSTRACT

Substantial evidence endorses the early assessment of cognitive development to promote children’s developmental health and well-being. Especially in the Brazilian context, there is a paucity of standardized screening and assessment tools with normative data to evaluate young children. This study provided initial reliability and validity evidence to support the use of the Cognitive Scale of the Dimensional Inventory for Child Development Assessment (IDADI) in a Brazilian sample of 1,174 4 to 72-months-olds. The inventory includes 106 maternal report items that assess increasingly sophisticated cognitive skills attained by children. Rasch analysis indicated excellent internal consistency of scores and optimal participant discrimination. Person separation was 10.67 and reliability was 0.99. Items sufficiently spanned cognitive abilities with an item separation of 35.81 and reliability of 1.00 (mean infit=0.95 [SD=0.28], mean outfit=1.63 [SD=1.97]). Items’ hierarchy was consistent with expectations regarding the developmental difficulty of various cognitive skills. Cluster analysis indicated different patterns of association between cognitive development and age, and a cluster predominantly of children with developmental disorders. IDADI scores correlated with relevant criteria variables, such as age, developmental diagnosis, maternal education, and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire, supporting the use of IDADI as a psychometrically sound measure of cognitive development.

通过母亲报告评估认知发展:来自儿童发展评估维度清单的有效性证据

摘要

大量证据支持早期评估认知发展以促进儿童的发育健康和福祉。特别是在巴西,缺乏具有规范数据的标准化筛查和评估工具来评估幼儿。本研究提供了初步的信度和效度证据,以支持在巴西 1,174 名 4 至 72 个月大的样本中使用儿童发展评估量表认知量表 (IDADI)。该清单包括 106 个母亲报告项目,用于评估儿童获得的日益复杂的认知技能。Rasch 分析表明分数的内部一致性和最佳的参与者歧视非常好。人员分离度为 10.67,可靠性为 0.99。项目充分跨越认知能力,项目分离度为 35.81,可靠性为 1.00(平均 infit=0.95 [SD=0.28],平均装备=1.63 [SD=1.97])。项目的层次结构与对各种认知技能发展困难的预期一致。聚类分析表明认知发展和年龄之间存在不同的关联模式,并且主要是发育障碍儿童的聚类。IDADI 分数与相关标准变量相关,例如年龄、发育诊断、母亲教育以及优势和困难问卷,支持使用 IDADI 作为认知发展的心理测量指标。项目的层次结构与对各种认知技能发展困难的预期一致。聚类分析表明认知发展和年龄之间存在不同的关联模式,并且主要是发育障碍儿童的聚类。IDADI 分数与相关标准变量相关,例如年龄、发育诊断、母亲教育以及优势和困难问卷,支持使用 IDADI 作为认知发展的心理测量指标。项目的层次结构与对各种认知技能发展困难的预期一致。聚类分析表明认知发展和年龄之间存在不同的关联模式,并且主要是发育障碍儿童的聚类。IDADI 分数与相关标准变量相关,例如年龄、发育诊断、母亲教育以及优势和困难问卷,支持使用 IDADI 作为认知发展的心理测量指标。
