To provide concurrent validity data for the KID-SAVE as a screening instrument for exposure to violence in African American children, to explore demographic differences in KID-SAVE scores, and to provide preliminary reliability data on a parent version of the KID-SAVE.
Questionnaire data were collected regarding exposure to violence, children's behavior and symptoms, and family aggression. A sample of 182 children and their parents participated.
Both parent and child report of violence exposure was significantly related to the child's psychological adjustment as endorsed by both parents and children. Also, significant relationships were obtained between parent report of their child's exposure to violence and the presence of family violence.
The KID-SAVE appears to be a promising instrument for the assessment of exposure to violence, specifically in African American children, and may be applicable in a variety of clinical settings.
提供关于KID-SAVE作为非裔美国儿童暴力暴露筛查工具的同时效度数据,探讨KID-SAVE得分的人口统计学差异,并提供KID-SAVE家长版的初步信度数据。
收集有关暴力暴露、儿童行为和症状以及家庭攻击行为的问卷数据。182名儿童及其父母参与了样本。
父母和孩子关于暴力暴露的报告均与父母和孩子认可的儿童心理调适显著相关。此外,父母报告其孩子的暴力暴露情况与家庭暴力的存在之间也存在显著关系。
KID-SAVE似乎是一种很有前景的暴力暴露评估工具,特别是对于非裔美国儿童,并且可能适用于各种临床环境。
