Emerging adulthood defines transition to employment, higher education, and domestic life. This study describes the development of an assessment of self-reported participation in a range of age-appropriate activities. Item selection was established from literature review, feedback from youth and professionals, the former Adolescent Activity Card Sort (AACS), and the original Activity Card Sort (ACS). Iterative item selection occurred with three separate samples of emerging adults and six professionals. Test-retest reliability was evaluated. The Adolescent and Young Adult Activity Card Sort (AYA-ACS) consists of chores (11 items), leisure (13), social (10), health and fitness (9), work (10), education (8), and parenting (9). Test-retest reliability showed significant moderate to substantial Kappa agreement (.48-.85) for all domains except parenting (κ = .15). This preliminary study describes the development of the AYA-ACS to be used with individuals who encounter challenges when transitioning to young adulthood.
新兴成年期定义了向就业、高等教育和家庭生活的过渡。本研究描述了一种自我报告参与一系列适合该年龄段活动的评估方法的开发过程。项目选择基于文献综述、青少年和专业人士的反馈、之前的青少年活动卡片分类法(AACS)以及原始活动卡片分类法(ACS)。对三组不同的新兴成年人样本和六名专业人士进行了反复的项目选择。评估了重测信度。青少年和青年成人活动卡片分类法(AYA-ACS)包括家务(11项)、休闲(13项)、社交(10项)、健康与健身(9项)、工作(10项)、教育(8项)和育儿(9项)。除育儿领域外(κ = 0.15),所有领域的重测信度均显示出显著的中度到高度卡帕一致性(0.48 - 0.85)。这项初步研究描述了AYA-ACS的开发过程,该方法可用于那些在向青年期过渡时遇到挑战的个体。
