Sensory processing supports children's development and abilities to participate in activities across contexts. Self-regulation skills may influence how children process various sensory experiences in daily life activities. The Sensory Processing and Self-Regulation Checklist (SPSRC) is a 130-item caregiver-reported checklist, covering children's essential sensory processing and self-regulation performance in daily activities.
This study examines the psychometric properties of the SPSRC (English version) in measuring the sensory processing and self-regulation abilities of children.
A preliminary field testing of the SPSRC-English was conducted in a sample of = 194 children (164 without disability and 30 with a disability) to evaluate its reliability and validity properties.
The SPSRC-English was shown to have high internal consistency and test-retest reliability; and good discriminant, structural, and criterion validity in the sensory processing and self-regulation abilities of children with and without disability ages 4-12 years.
The current study provides initial evidence on the reliability and validity of SPSRC-English in measuring the sensory processing and self-regulation abilities in children with and without a disability. The SPSRC-English may provide salient information supporting the understanding of sensory processing difficulties among children.
感觉处理能力支持儿童的发展和参与各种情境活动的能力。自我调节技能可能会影响儿童在日常生活活动中处理各种感觉体验的方式。感觉处理和自我调节检查表(SPSRC)是一份由照顾者报告的 130 项检查表,涵盖了儿童在日常生活活动中基本的感觉处理和自我调节表现。
本研究旨在检验 SPSRC(英文版本)在测量儿童感觉处理和自我调节能力方面的心理测量学特性。
初步在 194 名儿童(164 名无残疾和 30 名残疾)样本中进行了 SPSRC-英文的现场测试,以评估其信度和效度特性。
SPSRC-英文显示出较高的内部一致性和测试-重测信度;在 4-12 岁有和无残疾儿童的感觉处理和自我调节能力方面具有良好的区分度、结构性和效标效度。
本研究初步提供了 SPSRC-英文在测量残疾和非残疾儿童感觉处理和自我调节能力方面的信度和效度的证据。SPSRC-英文可能提供有关儿童感觉处理困难的重要信息,有助于理解。
