The ADHD Rating Scale-5 for Children and Adolescents, School Version, has been adopted and validated to be used in assessing ADHD among school children within Western contexts. However, there are few assessment tools in use for identifying ADHD characteristics in children in Sudan. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the psychometric properties of this rating scale in the context of Sudan. To accomplish this, data were collected on a sample of 3,742 school-aged children and adolescents as reported by their teachers. Psychometric properties can be classified as very good, with very high reliability (>0.90), and high construct validity tested by exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. Thus, the ADHD Rating Scale-5 for Children and Adolescents, School Version, is valid, reliable, and suitable to use for assessing ADHD symptoms among children and adolescents in the Sudanese context.
《儿童与青少年注意力缺陷多动障碍评定量表(第5版)学校版》已被采用并验证可用于评估西方背景下学童的注意力缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)。然而,苏丹用于识别儿童ADHD特征的评估工具很少。因此,本研究旨在调查该评定量表在苏丹背景下的心理测量特性。为此,收集了教师报告的3742名学龄儿童和青少年样本的数据。心理测量特性可归类为非常好,具有非常高的信度(>0.90),并通过探索性和验证性因素分析检验了高结构效度。因此,《儿童与青少年注意力缺陷多动障碍评定量表(第5版)学校版》有效、可靠,适用于评估苏丹背景下儿童和青少年的ADHD症状。
