Early childhood intervention (ECI) centres in Spain recently initiated a process of change towards the adoption of family-centred practices (FCPs). Knowledge about the extent to which practitioners' use FCPs is needed. The psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the FCPs scale were examined.
A convenience sample of 105 families of children with developmental delays attending three different ECI centres in Spain completed the FCPs scale and provided information about the ECI centre characteristics and practices, caregiver self-efficacy beliefs, and family and child demographic information.
The Spanish version of the FCP scale was found to be both reliable and valid. FCPs were correlated with self-efficacy beliefs, parents' involvement in their child's ECI program and family decision making.
The FCP scale provides practitioners with useful information about their practices, but also has capacity-building consequences for families. The study is a first step for examining the use of FCPs in Spain.
西班牙的幼儿干预（ECI）中心最近启动了一个变革过程，以采用以家庭为中心的做法（FCPs）。需要了解从业者使用FCPs的程度。对FCPs量表西班牙语版本的心理测量特性进行了检验。
从西班牙三个不同ECI中心选取105名发育迟缓儿童的家庭作为便利样本，这些家庭完成了FCPs量表，并提供了有关ECI中心特征和做法、照顾者自我效能信念以及家庭和儿童人口统计学信息。
发现FCP量表西班牙语版本既可靠又有效。FCPs与自我效能信念、父母对孩子ECI项目的参与度以及家庭决策相关。
FCP量表为从业者提供了有关其做法的有用信息，同时也对家庭具有能力建设方面的影响。该研究是在西班牙检验FCPs使用情况的第一步。
