As many as 1 in 5 youth in the United States experience social, emotional, and behavioral problems. However, many students with mental health concerns are unidentified and do not receive adequate care. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the factor structure, measurement invariance, and the concurrent and predictive validity of the Early Identification System-Student Report (EIS-SR), a screener for social, emotional, and behavioral problems, using a sample of over 5000 students from Grades 3 to 5. The EIS-SR was developed by using extant literature on the risk indicators that lead to social, emotional, and behavioral challenges among children and youth. As expected, seven subscales were identified as having adequate factor loadings. Furthermore, the measure was determined to be invariant across grade level (n = 5005), gender (n = 5005), and between Black and White students (n = 1582). The concurrent validity of the Internalizing Behavior, Attention and Academic Issues, Emotion Dysregulation, and School Disengagement subscales was supported by correlations with comparable subscales of the Behavior Assessment System for Children-3rd Edition (BASC-3; n = 382). Additionally, the EIS-SR subscales administered in the fall of the school year were predictive of important outcomes in spring, including attendance (n = 4780), disciplinary referrals (n = 4938), bully victimization (n = 4670), math academic achievement scores (n = 4736), and reading (n = 4772) academic achievement scores. The EIS-SR holds promise as a feasible and technically adequate screening tool for use in elementary schools.

检查早期识别系统的有效性 - 用于在小学样本中筛选的学生版

在美国,多达五分之一的年轻人会遇到社交、情感和行为问题。然而,许多有心理健康问题的学生身份不明,没有得到足够的照顾。本研究的目的是评估早期识别系统 - 学生报告 (EIS-SR) 的因子结构、测量不变性以及同时和预测有效性,这是一种社会、情感和行为问题的筛选器,使用样本超过 5000 名 3 至 5 年级的学生。EIS-SR 是通过使用关于导致儿童和青少年的社会、情感和行为挑战的风险指标的现有文献开发的。正如预期的那样,七个分量表被确定为具有足够的因子负载。此外,该测量被确定为跨年级不变(n = 5005)、性别 ( n  = 5005) 以及黑人和白人学生之间 ( n  = 1582)。内化行为、注意力和学业问题、情绪失调和学校脱离子量表的同时有效性得到了与儿童行为评估系统第三版(BASC-3;n  = 382)的可比子量表的相关性的支持。此外,在学年秋季实施的 EIS-SR 分量表可以预测春季的重要结果,包括出勤率 ( n  = 4780)、纪律转介 ( n  = 4938)、欺凌受害 ( n  = 4670)、数学学业成绩分数(n  = 4736)和阅读(n = 4772) 学业成绩分数。EIS-SR 有望成为小学使用的可行且技术上足够的筛选工具。
