Screening for psychosocial problems is an effective way to identify children who need further evaluation, and many brief, psychometrically strong measures exist for this purpose. More research is needed, however, about the performance of these measures in special populations who are familiar to primary care settings. The purpose of this study was to examine and compare maternal ratings on the Pediatric Symptom Checklist (PSC) between low-income, urban mothers who had suffered intimate partner violence (IPV) in the past year (n = 23) and a demographically-matched comparison group of mothers (n = 23). Victims of violence rated their children as having significantly more problems in a number of categories (Total PSC Score, Externalizing, and Internalizing) than did mothers in the comparison group. The PSC shows promise as an adequate screening tool for psychosocial problems in the children of women who have suffered IPV, but more research is needed.
筛查心理社会问题是识别需要进一步评估儿童的有效方法，为此存在许多简短且心理测量学上可靠的措施。然而，对于这些措施在初级保健环境中常见的特殊人群中的表现，还需要更多研究。本研究的目的是检查并比较过去一年遭受亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）的低收入城市母亲（n = 23）与人口统计学匹配的母亲对照组（n = 23）对儿童症状清单（PSC）的母亲评分。暴力受害者对其子女在多个类别（PSC总分、外化问题和内化问题）中的问题评分显著高于对照组母亲。PSC有望成为筛查遭受IPV的女性子女心理社会问题的适当工具，但还需要更多研究。
