The NIH Toolbox for Neurological and Behavioral Function assessment battery contains measures in the domains of cognitive function, motor function, sensory function, and emotional health. It was designed for use in epidemiological and clinical trials health-related research.
This paper describes the first phase of instrument development for the stress and self-efficacy subdomain of emotional health. Based on an extensive literature review and expert consultation, 127 measures were initially considered for inclusion in this subdomain, including measures of stress, self-efficacy, emotion regulation, and coping.
Several measures, including emotion regulation and measures of coping strategies, did not meet criteria that were a priori established for inclusion. Psychometric properties of the remaining candidate measures were evaluated using data from five independent samples (combined N = 3175). Confirmatory and exploratory factor analyses indicated the Perceived Stress Scale and the General Self-Efficacy Scale each assessed single dimensions.
Based on their psychometric performance, these two instruments were selected for inclusion and subsequent national norming for the NIH Toolbox.
美国国立卫生研究院神经与行为功能评估工具集包含认知功能、运动功能、感觉功能和情绪健康等领域的测量方法。它旨在用于流行病学和临床试验等与健康相关的研究。
本文描述了情绪健康压力与自我效能子领域工具开发的第一阶段。基于广泛的文献综述和专家咨询,最初考虑将127种测量方法纳入该子领域,包括压力、自我效能、情绪调节和应对等测量方法。
包括情绪调节和应对策略测量方法在内的几种测量方法未达到预先设定的纳入标准。使用来自五个独立样本(合并N = 3175)的数据评估了其余候选测量方法的心理测量特性。验证性和探索性因素分析表明,感知压力量表和一般自我效能量表各自评估单一维度。
基于其心理测量性能,选择这两种工具纳入美国国立卫生研究院工具集并随后进行全国常模制定。
