As no scales are currently available to assess the social-emotional reciprocity (SER) between children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and their parents, we aimed to develop a questionnaire for this.
Both quantitative and qualitative techniques were used for content validation. All stages of this study used purposive sampling to choose various groups of experts, mental health professionals, and parents of children with ASD to participate in the development, judgment-quantifying, and pretest stages. Data from 30 parents of children with ASD were gathered for the field test.
Thirty items were retained after content validation. The proportion of consensus regarding the comprehensiveness of the entire questionnaire was 1.00. The scale-level content validity index (CVI) by averaging calculation method and universal agreement calculation method were 0.95 and 0.50, respectively. Following the pretest, a total of 23 questions, on a five-point scale, were retained.
Given the significance of SER between children with ASD and their parents, mental health practitioners should use this questionnaire to understand it to maximize the efficacy of any intervention.
由于目前尚无量表可用于评估自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)儿童与其父母之间的社会情感互动(SER),我们旨在为此编制一份问卷。
采用定量和定性技术进行内容效度验证。本研究的所有阶段均采用立意抽样法,选择不同组别的专家、心理健康专业人员以及ASD儿童的父母参与问卷编制、评判量化和预测试阶段。收集了30名ASD儿童父母的数据用于现场测试。
内容效度验证后保留了30个条目。对整个问卷全面性的共识比例为1.00。通过平均计算法和普遍认同计算法得出的量表级内容效度指数(CVI)分别为0.95和0.50。预测试后,共保留了23个采用五点量表的问题。
鉴于ASD儿童与其父母之间社会情感互动的重要性,心理健康从业者应使用这份问卷来了解情况,以最大限度地提高任何干预措施的效果。
