Two studies examined the feasibility, utility, and validity of Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) and Recurrence Quantification Analysis (RQA) in assessing emotion dysregulation in children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). In Study 1, 11 parents of children with ADHD ages 8-11 completed EMA-based ratings of their children's mood three times daily for 28 days (84 ratings total) and questionnaires regarding their children's emotion dysregulation. RQA was used to quantify the temporal patterning of dysregulation of the children's mood. In Study 2, five children ages 8-11 completed EMA-based ratings of their mood three times daily for 28 days. Results supported the feasibility and validity of the parent report EMA protocol, with greater intensity, variability, and persistent patterning of variability associated with greater emotion dysregulation. Results did not support the validity of the child report protocol, as children were less likely to complete ratings when emotionally distressed and demonstrated substantial response bias.
两项研究探讨了生态瞬时评估(EMA)和递归量化分析(RQA)在评估注意力缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)儿童情绪调节障碍方面的可行性、实用性和有效性。在研究1中,11名8至11岁ADHD儿童的家长连续28天每天三次完成基于EMA的孩子情绪评分(共84次评分),并填写有关孩子情绪调节障碍的问卷。RQA用于量化孩子情绪调节障碍的时间模式。在研究2中,5名8至11岁的儿童连续28天每天三次完成基于EMA的情绪评分。结果支持了家长报告EMA方案的可行性和有效性,情绪调节障碍程度越高,强度、变异性和持续的变异性模式越明显。结果不支持儿童报告方案的有效性,因为儿童在情绪困扰时不太可能完成评分,且表现出明显的反应偏差。
