Children (N = 55; ages 6 to 15.5 years) and their mothers participated in a study to gather psychometric data for the Children's Health Care Attitudes Questionnaire (CHCAQ), and to explore how several variables (child's age, sex, cognitive-developmental level, experience with illness and health care, and health locus of control; maternal health care attitudes and health locus of control; and family socioeconomic status) might mediate children's differential responding to this measure. Additional support was obtained for satisfactory internal consistency and construct validity of the CHCAQ. Patterns of intercorrelations of CHCAQ scales were generally consistent with previous findings. Hierarchical regression analyses indicated that those factors mediating children's health care attitudes differ for each CHCAQ scale. Findings suggest that a modified CHCAQ may be a useful instrument for assessing adults' health care attitudes.
55名儿童（年龄在6至15.5岁之间）及其母亲参与了一项研究，旨在收集儿童医疗保健态度问卷（CHCAQ）的心理测量数据，并探讨几个变量（儿童的年龄、性别、认知发展水平、疾病与医疗保健经历、健康控制点；母亲的医疗保健态度与健康控制点；以及家庭社会经济地位）如何可能影响儿童对该测量方法的不同反应。研究还获得了其他支持，证明CHCAQ具有令人满意的内部一致性和结构效度。CHCAQ各量表的相互关联模式总体上与先前的研究结果一致。分层回归分析表明，影响儿童医疗保健态度的因素在每个CHCAQ量表上有所不同。研究结果表明，经过修改的CHCAQ可能是评估成年人医疗保健态度的有用工具。
