To provide an evidence-based review of measures of psychosocial adjustment and psychopathology, with a specific focus on their use in the field of pediatric psychology.
As part of a larger survey of pediatric psychologists from the Society of Pediatric Psychology e-mail listserv (American Psychological Association, APA, Division 54), 37 measures were selected for this psychometric review. Measures that qualified for the review fell into one of the following three categories: (a) internalizing or externalizing rating scales, (b) broad-band rating scales, and (c) self-related rating scales.
Psychometric characteristics (i.e., three types of reliability, two types of validity) were strong for the majority of measures reviewed, with 34 of the 37 measures meeting "well-established" evidence-based assessment (EBA) criteria. Strengths and weaknesses of existing measures were noted.
Recommendations for future work in this area of assessment are presented, including suggestions that more fine-grained EBA criteria be developed and that evidence-based "profiles" be devised for each measure.
对心理社会适应和精神病理学测量方法进行循证综述,特别关注其在儿科心理学领域的应用。
作为对儿科心理学协会电子邮件列表(美国心理学会,第54分会)中的儿科心理学家进行的一项更大规模调查的一部分,本次心理测量学综述选择了37种测量方法。符合综述标准的测量方法分为以下三类之一:(a)内化或外化评定量表,(b)宽带评定量表,以及(c)自我相关评定量表。
大多数被综述的测量方法的心理测量学特征(即三种信度类型、两种效度类型)较强,37种测量方法中有34种符合“成熟的”循证评估(EBA)标准。指出了现有测量方法的优点和缺点。
提出了该评估领域未来工作的建议,包括建议制定更细化的EBA标准,并为每种测量方法设计循证“概况”。
