This study aimed to investigate the test-retest reliability of a Mandarin Chinese version of the Childhood Autism Spectrum Test (CAST), in a Chinese population. Parents in a school based study on the prevalence of ASC in mainland China were asked to complete a second version of the CAST approximately 2-4 months after first completion. Test retest data were available from 70 children (questionnaires completed by the same parent). Using a cut-off score of 15, the test-retest reliability was good (kappa=0.64). The test-retest reliability in three categories (≤ 11, 12-14, ≥ 15) was moderate (weighted kappa=0.53). The correlation between the scores at CAST-1 and CAST-2 was good (Spearman rho=0.73). The Mandarin CAST demonstrated moderate to good test-retest reliability as a screening instrument for ASC in an assessment sample in mainland China.
本研究旨在调查中文版儿童自闭症谱系测试(CAST)在中文人群中的重测信度。在中国大陆进行的自闭症谱系障碍患病率的学校基础研究中,要求家长在首次完成后大约 2-4 个月完成 CAST 的第二版。共有 70 名儿童(由同一位家长完成问卷)提供了重测数据。使用 15 分的截断值,重测信度良好(kappa=0.64)。三个类别(≤11、12-14、≥15)的重测信度为中度(加权 kappa=0.53)。CAST-1 和 CAST-2 得分之间的相关性良好(Spearman rho=0.73)。中文版 CAST 作为中国大陆评估样本中自闭症谱系障碍的筛查工具,具有中等到良好的重测信度。
