The adaptive ability performance test (ADAPT) was developed to assess adaptive skills in individuals with intellectual disabilities and borderline intellectual functioning, with or without mental disorders. As a follow-up to earlier research on the ADAPT, a factor analytic study was conducted.
One thousand and sixty six ADAPTs from clients with (suspected) intellectual disabilities or borderline intellectual functioning and 129 ADAPTs from participants from the general population were collected along with other characteristics (e.g., IQ, psychiatric classifications, living situation).
An exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was performed and resulted in good fit indices. Subsequent confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and multigroup CFA showed acceptable to good fit indices. This resulted in an instrument with eight factors and 62 items.
Factor analytic results suggest that the ADAPT is a valid instrument that measures adaptive skills in individuals with intellectual disabilities or borderline intellectual functioning.
适应性能力表现测试(ADAPT)旨在评估有智力障碍和边缘智力功能的个体,无论是否有精神障碍,他们的适应能力。作为对 ADAPT 早期研究的跟进,进行了一项因素分析研究。
共收集了 1066 份来自有(疑似)智力障碍或边缘智力功能的客户的 ADAPT 和 129 份来自普通人群参与者的 ADAPT,以及其他特征(例如智商、精神分类、生活状况)。
进行了探索性因素分析(EFA),结果显示拟合指数良好。随后的验证性因素分析(CFA)和多组 CFA 显示出可接受到良好的拟合指数。这导致了一个具有 8 个因素和 62 个项目的工具。
因素分析结果表明,ADAPT 是一种有效的工具,可衡量有智力障碍或边缘智力功能的个体的适应能力。
