The present study aimed at testing the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) including an adapted five-item DSM-Oriented Attention Problem Scale for predicting attention deficit hyperactivity disorders (ADHD).
CBCL ratings were made both in a community sample (N = 390) and an outpatient child psychiatric sample (N = 392). Four different prediction models were analyzed in a community subsample (n = 195) and an outpatient subsample (n = 196) and cross-validated in two further subsamples of the same size.
The adapted DSM-Oriented Attention Problem Scale was superior to the original Attention Problem Scale in the identification of ADHD participants. A raw score of 5 to 6 on the reduced DSM-Oriented Attention Problem Scale was the best discriminator between cases and noncases.
The adapted DSM-Oriented Attention Problem Scale of the CBCL is a useful screening instrument for ADHD with adequate diagnostic accuracy in community and outpatient samples. (J. of Att. Dis. 2010; 13(5) 454-463).
本研究旨在测试儿童行为检查表(CBCL),包括一个经过改编的五分量表的 DSM 定向注意问题量表,以预测注意缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)。
在社区样本(N=390)和门诊儿童精神病样本(N=392)中均进行了 CBCL 评定。在社区子样本(n=195)和门诊子样本(n=196)中分析了四个不同的预测模型,并在两个相同大小的进一步子样本中进行了交叉验证。
经过改编的 DSM 定向注意问题量表在识别 ADHD 参与者方面优于原始的注意问题量表。在简化的 DSM 定向注意问题量表上,原始分数为 5 到 6 分是病例与非病例之间的最佳区分器。
CBCL 的经过改编的 DSM 定向注意问题量表是一种有用的 ADHD 筛查工具,在社区和门诊样本中具有足够的诊断准确性。(J. of Att. Dis. 2010; 13(5) 454-463)。
