A key feature of autism is restricted repetitive behavior (RRB). Despite the significance of RRBs, little is known about their phenomenology, assessment, and treatment. The Repetitive Behavior Scale-Revised (RBS-R) is a recently-developed questionnaire that captures the breadth of RRB in autism. To validate the RBS-R in an independent sample, we conducted a survey within the South Carolina Autism Society. A total of 320 caregivers (32%) responded. Factor analysis produced a five-factor solution that was clinically meaningful and statistically sound. The factors were labeled "Ritualistic/Sameness Behavior," "Stereotypic Behavior," "Self-injurious Behavior," "Compulsive Behavior," and "Restricted Interests." Measures of internal consistency were high for this solution, and interrater reliability data suggested that the RBS-R performs well in outpatient settings.
自闭症的一个关键特征是受限的重复行为(RRB)。尽管RRB很重要,但人们对其现象学、评估和治疗知之甚少。修订版重复行为量表(RBS-R)是最近开发的一份问卷,它涵盖了自闭症中RRB的广度。为了在一个独立样本中验证RBS-R,我们在南卡罗来纳州自闭症协会内进行了一项调查。共有320名照料者(32%)做出了回应。因子分析得出了一个具有临床意义且统计合理的五因子解决方案。这些因子被标记为“仪式化/相同行为”“刻板行为”“自伤行为”“强迫行为”和“受限兴趣”。该解决方案的内部一致性测量值很高,评分者间信度数据表明RBS-R在门诊环境中表现良好。
