The adaptive behavior of forty-one 4- through 8-year-olds with Williams syndrome was assessed using the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales-Interview Edition. Based on the cognitive and personality profiles characteristic of children with this syndrome, we predicted that the domains of Socialization and Communication would be relative strengths, whereas Daily Living Skills and Motor Skills would be relative weaknesses. We also expected that Socialization Skills would be more advanced than Communication skills, and that within the Socialization domain, interpersonal skills would be stronger than play/leisure or coping skills. All predictions were confirmed. Adaptive behavior standard score was not related to CA. The children earned similar overall standard scores on the Vineland and the Differential Ability Scales. Interrelations among adaptive behavior, cognitive abilities, and personality characteristics are discussed.
使用《文兰适应行为量表-访谈版》对41名4至8岁的威廉姆斯综合征患儿的适应行为进行了评估。基于该综合征患儿的认知和性格特征,我们预测社会化和沟通领域将是相对优势,而日常生活技能和运动技能将是相对劣势。我们还预计社会化技能会比沟通技能更先进,并且在社会化领域内,人际交往技能会比游戏/休闲或应对技能更强。所有预测均得到证实。适应行为标准分数与实际年龄无关。这些孩子在《文兰量表》和《差异能力量表》上获得了相似的总体标准分数。文中讨论了适应行为、认知能力和性格特征之间的相互关系。
