The Pediatric Inventory for Parents (PIP) is a 42-item measure of paediatric parenting stress that results in 84 responses. Although this measure has been extensively validated, the number of items in the instrument may hinder clinical applicability.
The current study reports on the development of a short-form of the PIP using data from 344 fathers of children with type 1 diabetes. Recommendations for short-form development as well as item response theory (IRT) were used to construct a 13-item PIP Short-Form that results in 26 responses.
The retained items were chosen to reflect the content domains of the original form of the PIP and demonstrated acceptable item fit under the partial credit model (PCM; Infit and Outfit indices closest to one and items with thresholds across the span of the latent trait).
The PIP Short-Form may allow health care professionals to more feasibly assess paediatric parenting stress among parents of children with chronic health conditions. Future studies are needed to validate this new short-form.
儿科父母问卷(PIP)是一种 42 项的儿童养育压力测量工具,共产生 84 个结果。尽管该测量工具已经得到了广泛验证,但仪器中的项目数量可能会影响其临床适用性。
本研究使用来自 344 名 1 型糖尿病儿童父亲的数据,报告了 PIP 短式版本的开发情况。建议的短式发展以及项目反应理论(IRT)用于构建一个 13 项的 PIP 短式版本,共产生 26 个结果。
保留的项目旨在反映原始 PIP 形式的内容领域,并在部分信用模型(PCM)下显示出可接受的项目拟合度(Infit 和 Outfit 指数最接近 1,以及具有潜在特质跨度的阈值的项目)。
PIP 短式版本可能使医疗保健专业人员更能在慢性病儿童的父母中评估儿童养育压力。需要进一步的研究来验证这个新的短式版本。
