No tools are currently available in France, for the detection of autism without mental retardation (high functioning autism and Asperger syndrome here referred as TED SDI). Use of screening tests by first-line clinicians would allow better detection of children who are likely to display such difficulties and to improve patients' care. In England, 3 questionnaires have been evaluated: Autism Spectrum Quotient (AQ), Empathy Quotient (EQ), and Systemizing Quotient (SQ). This is the translation and evaluation of 3 questionnaires in France for TED SDI and control adolescents.
The translation of the questionnaires into French required two simultaneous translations, two back-translations and two consensus meetings. This is a cross-sectional study comparing scores obtained with the three AQ, EQ and SQ questionnaires. These questionnaires were completed by the parents of four groups of adolescents 11-18 years: 100 TED SDI adolescents (50 with IQ ≥ 85 and 50 with 70≤IQ<85), 50 adolescents with another psychiatric disorder (TP) and 200 control adolescents (T).
580 questionnaires have been sent to 40 recruiting centres. By the 28th of February, 2010, 277 completed questionnaires were received completed (TED SDI: 70 (70%); TP: 25 (50%) et T: 182 (91%)). In the control group, 92 girls (mean 14.4±1.7 years) and 66 boys (14.5±1.7 years) were recruited. In the TED SDI group, 4 girls (14.3±2.4 years) and 42 boys (14.5±1.7 years) were recruited. One girl (81) and 6 boys (72.2±7.7) have an IQ between 70 and 85, and 3 girls (95.3±4.2) and 36 boys (102.9±12) have an IQ higher than 85. In the TP group, 9 girls (15.9±1.7 years) and 4 boys (15.8±1.9 years) were recruited.
The aim of this study is to make the AQ, EQ and SQ questionnaires available in French for French speaking clinicians. This study will allow a rigorous evaluation of the usefulness of the AQ questionnaire in the screening of TED SDI in adolescents.
目前法国尚无用于检测无智力障碍自闭症（此处将高功能自闭症和阿斯伯格综合征称为TED SDI）的工具。一线临床医生使用筛查测试将有助于更好地检测可能存在此类问题的儿童，并改善患者护理。在英国，已对三份问卷进行了评估：自闭症谱系商数（AQ）、共情商数（EQ）和系统化商数（SQ）。本文是对这三份问卷在法国针对TED SDI青少年和对照青少年进行的翻译及评估。
将问卷翻译成法语需要进行两次同步翻译、两次回译以及两次共识会议。这是一项横断面研究，比较使用AQ、EQ和SQ三份问卷所获得的分数。这些问卷由四组11至18岁青少年的家长填写：100名TED SDI青少年（50名智商≥85，50名智商在70≤智商<85之间）、50名患有其他精神疾病的青少年（TP）以及200名对照青少年（T）。
已向40个招募中心发送了580份问卷。截至2010年2月28日，共收到277份已填写完整的问卷（TED SDI组：70份（70%）；TP组：25份（50%）；T组：182份（91%））。在对照组中，招募了92名女孩（平均年龄14.4±1.7岁）和66名男孩（14.5±1.7岁）。在TED SDI组中，招募了4名女孩（14.3±2.4岁）和42名男孩（14.5±1.7岁）。一名女孩（81）和6名男孩（72.2±7.7）的智商在70至85之间，3名女孩（95.3±4.2）和36名男孩（102.9±12）的智商高于85。在TP组中，招募了9名女孩（15.9±1.7岁）和4名男孩（15.8±1.9岁）。
本研究的目的是将AQ、EQ和SQ问卷翻译成法语，供说法语的临床医生使用。这项研究将有助于严格评估AQ问卷在筛查青少年TED SDI方面的有用性。
