The Barkley Deficits in Executive Functioning Scale-Children and Adolescents (BDEFS-CA) is an empirically based tool for evaluating clinically significant dimensions of child and adolescent executive functioning. The present study examined the psychometric properties of Persian version of the BDEFS-CA Long Form parent-report in children and adolescents aged 6-18 years old ( = 2,295, 51% girls). The results of confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) consistently underscored a five-factor structure (self-management to time, self-organization/problem solving, self-restraint, self-motivation and self-regulation of emotion), resembling the original factor structure, in Persian language. Additionally, Results showed that Persian version of the BDEFS-CA Long Form demonstrated high internal consistency and test-retest reliabilities. Convergent validity with Childhood Executive Functioning Inventory (CHEXI) and divergent validity between normal and clinical groups were good. Overall, findings provide support for the validity and reliability Persian version of the BDEFS-CA Long Form, which can be used to assess executive dysfunction in daily life activities.
巴克利执行功能缺陷量表-儿童与青少年版(BDEFS-CA)是一种基于实证的工具,用于评估儿童和青少年执行功能的临床显著维度。本研究考察了6至18岁儿童及青少年(=2295名,51%为女孩)中波斯语版BDEFS-CA长式家长报告的心理测量特性。验证性因素分析(CFA)结果一致强调了一个五因素结构(时间自我管理、自我组织/问题解决、自我约束、自我激励和情绪自我调节),与原始因素结构相似,以波斯语呈现。此外,结果表明,波斯语版BDEFS-CA长式具有较高的内部一致性和重测信度。与儿童执行功能量表(CHEXI)的收敛效度以及正常组与临床组之间的区分效度良好。总体而言,研究结果为波斯语版BDEFS-CA长式的效度和信度提供了支持,该量表可用于评估日常生活活动中的执行功能障碍。
