The main aim of this study was to generate psychometric data for the French translation of the Developmental Behavior Checklist - Adult version (DBC-A). In addition, the score distributions were examined by using components of mean-based scores. The DBC-A was administered to 580 adults with intellectual disability recruited in the French-speaking regions of Switzerland and Belgium. A confirmatory factor analysis was performed to evaluate the adjustment of the collected data to the original six-factor model; the internal consistency of the factors was analyzed with Cronbach's alpha. The Reiss Screen for Maladaptive Behavior was used to evaluate the concurrent validity of the instrument. Psychopathology prevalence was also explored. The original factor structure of the DBC-A was replicated, with the internal consistency of the factors ranging from respectable to very good according to the alpha values. When the "screening" cut-off of the DBC-A was used, the DBC-A highlighted a psychopathology prevalence of 38%, which was close to the frequency provided by the Reiss Screen (36%). These results show the robustness of the DBC-A's psychometric properties. Thus, we recommend the use of this instrument to assess and screen psychopathology among French-speaking adults with intellectual disability.
本研究的主要目的是为《发育行为检查表 - 成人版》（DBC - A）的法语翻译生成心理测量数据。此外，通过使用基于均值的分数成分来检查分数分布。DBC - A被施用于在瑞士和比利时法语区招募的580名成年智障人士。进行了验证性因素分析，以评估所收集的数据与原始六因素模型的拟合度；使用克朗巴赫α系数分析各因素的内部一致性。使用《不良行为赖斯筛查量表》来评估该工具的同时效度。还探讨了精神病理学患病率。DBC - A的原始因素结构得以复制，根据α值，各因素的内部一致性从尚可到非常好不等。当使用DBC - A的“筛查”临界值时，DBC - A突出显示精神病理学患病率为38%，这与《赖斯筛查量表》提供的频率（36%）相近。这些结果表明了DBC - A心理测量特性的稳健性。因此，我们建议使用该工具来评估和筛查法语区成年智障人士的精神病理学情况。
