In persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities, not only cognitive brain functions, but also socio-emotional processing networks may be impaired. This study aims to validate the Scale of Emotional Development-Short (SED-S) to provide an instrument for the assessment of socio-emotional brain functions.
The SED-S was applied in 160 children aged 0-12 years. Criterion validity was investigated at item and scale level in terms of the agreement between the scale classification and the child's chronological age. Additionally, interrater reliability and internal consistency were assessed.
For the majority of items, the expected response pattern emerged, showing the highest response probabilities in the respective target age groups. Agreement between the classification of the different SED-S domains and chronological age was high (κw = 0.95; exact agreement = 80.6%). Interrater reliability at domain level ranged from κw = .98 to 1.00 and internal consistency was high (α = .99).
The study normed the SED-S in a sample of typically developing children and provides evidence for criterion validity on item, domain and scale level.
在智力和发育障碍者中，不仅认知大脑功能，而且社会情感处理网络可能受损。本研究旨在验证情感发展量表-短卷（SED-S），以提供评估社会情感大脑功能的工具。
SED-S 应用于 160 名 0-12 岁儿童。在项目和量表水平上通过量表分类与儿童实际年龄之间的一致性评估了标准效度。此外，还评估了组内信度和内部一致性。
对于大多数项目，出现了预期的反应模式，在各自的目标年龄组中表现出最高的反应概率。不同 SED-S 域的分类与实际年龄之间的一致性很高（κw=0.95；完全一致=80.6%）。域级别的组内信度范围为κw=0.98 至 1.00，内部一致性很高（α=0.99）。
本研究在典型发育儿童样本中对 SED-S 进行了标准化，并提供了项目、域和量表水平标准效度的证据。
