This study aimed to examine the psychometric properties of the Sensory Processing Measure-Hong Kong Chinese version (SPM-HKC), and to study the pattern of behavioral response of children towards sensory events across home and school settings. The two major forms of the SPM, Home Form and Main Classroom Form, were translated into Chinese in this study. The content validity of the SPM-HKC was reviewed by 20 expert panel members. A total of 547 typically developing children and 140 children with autistic spectrum disorder (ASD) were recruited for the field test on its reliability and validity. The findings of this study showed that the SPM-HKC was a valid and reliable tool in the screening for sensory processing difficulty of children aged 5-12 among the Chinese populations. But the correlation between the Home Form and the Main Classroom Form was low. It is recommended to use separate forms and norms to measure the performance of children across the home and school environments for more thorough understanding of difficulty in encountering daily sensory events.
本研究旨在考察香港中文版感觉处理量表（SPM-HKC）的心理测量学特性，并研究儿童在家庭和学校环境中对感觉事件的行为反应模式。本研究将 SPM 的两种主要形式，即家庭形式和主要教室形式，翻译成中文。SPM-HKC 的内容效度由 20 名专家组成的小组进行了审查。共有 547 名发育正常的儿童和 140 名自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）儿童参加了对其信度和效度的现场测试。研究结果表明，SPM-HKC 是一种有效的、可靠的筛查工具，用于筛查中国 5-12 岁儿童的感觉处理困难。但家庭形式和主要教室形式之间的相关性较低。建议使用单独的形式和规范来衡量儿童在家庭和学校环境中的表现，以更全面地了解儿童在日常生活中遇到感觉事件的困难。
