Comprehensive, reliable, and valid assessment is essential for individually tailored, appropriate, and effective intervention planning and implementation. Research, education, and practice using an Ayres Sensory Integration (ASI) approach have a long history of prioritizing comprehensive assessment. To meet the need for a set of tests that will fully evaluate the constructs of ASI with psychometrically strong, internationally appropriate, and easily accessible measurement tools, the development of the Evaluation in Ayres Sensory Integration (EASI) has been initiated. This article introduces the EASI, describes the overarching plan for its development, and reports the results of promising preliminary analyses of discriminative validity data.
全面、可靠且有效的评估对于个性化定制、恰当且有效的干预计划制定与实施至关重要。采用艾尔斯感觉统合(ASI)方法进行的研究、教育及实践,长期以来一直将全面评估作为优先事项。为满足使用心理测量学上强大、国际适用且易于获取的测量工具全面评估ASI结构的一系列测试需求,现已启动艾尔斯感觉统合评估(EASI)的开发工作。本文介绍了EASI,描述了其总体开发计划,并报告了有前景的区分效度数据初步分析结果。
