To assess concurrent validity for the newly developed parent version of the Children's Interview for Psychiatric Syndromes (P-ChIPS).
ChIPS and P-ChIPS were administered to 36 children 6 to 13 years of age and their parents. P-ChIPS results were compared with clinicians' diagnoses for 21 of those children. Either a standard or rare kappa coefficient and percentage agreement were used to assess concordance. Questions on P-ChIPS have a one-to-one correspondence with questions on the ChIPS, with the only change being from first to third person (e.g. "Have you ever . ." is replaced by "Has your child ever . . .").
There were moderate levels of agreement between the parent and child versions of the instrument, consistent with other reports of parent and child concordance on structured interviews in the literature. Likewise, there were moderate levels of agreement between the parent interview and clinician diagnoses, again consistent with other reports of parent and clinician concordance in the literature. Sensitivity averaged 87% across diagnostic categories, and average specificity was 76%.
P-ChIPS has adequate psychometric properties for use in clinical settings.
评估新开发的儿童精神综合征访谈家长版(P-ChIPS)的同时效度。
对36名6至13岁的儿童及其家长进行了儿童精神综合征访谈(ChIPS)和P-ChIPS测试。将其中21名儿童的P-ChIPS结果与临床医生的诊断结果进行比较。采用标准或稀有kappa系数以及百分比一致性来评估一致性。P-ChIPS上的问题与ChIPS上的问题一一对应,唯一的变化是从第一人称变为第三人称(例如,“你是否曾经……”被替换为“你的孩子是否曾经……”)。
该工具的家长版和儿童版之间存在中等程度的一致性,这与文献中关于结构化访谈中家长和儿童一致性的其他报告一致。同样,家长访谈与临床医生诊断之间也存在中等程度的一致性,这也与文献中关于家长和临床医生一致性的其他报告一致。各诊断类别的平均敏感性为87%,平均特异性为76%。
P-ChIPS具有足够的心理测量学特性,可用于临床环境。
