The Caregiver Strain Questionnaire assesses the three dimensions of caregiver strain, namely the objective, subjective externalized and subjective internalized strain. It was validated among caregivers of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in the United States and Mainland China with promising psychometric properties.This study aimed to develop and validate the Chinese (traditional script) version of the Caregiver Strain Questionnaire (C-CGSQ) among 198 caregivers of children with ASD in Hong Kong. The C-CGSQ showed excellent internal consistency (α = 0.958) and test-retest reliability (Spearman's r = 0.966). Concurrent, convergent, divergent validity and a three-factor structure (consistent with previous studies) were established. The C-CGSQ demonstrated promising psychometric properties in measuring caregiver strain among caregivers of Chinese ASD children in Hong Kong.
照顾者压力问卷评估照顾者压力的三个维度，即客观、主观外化和主观内化压力。它已在美国和中国大陆的自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）儿童照顾者中进行了验证，具有良好的心理测量学特性。本研究旨在为香港的 198 名 ASD 儿童照顾者开发和验证照顾者压力问卷的中文（繁体）版本（C-CGSQ）。C-CGSQ 显示出优异的内部一致性（α=0.958）和重测信度（Spearman r=0.966）。同时，还确立了其同时效、收敛、发散效度和三因素结构（与先前研究一致）。C-CGSQ 显示出了在评估香港中文 ASD 儿童照顾者压力方面具有良好的心理测量学特性。
