This study was designed to: (a) assess the degree to which rehabilitation staff rate the severity of maladaptive behaviors on Part II of the AAMD Adaptive Behavior Scale (ABS) and, on the basis of the obtained rating, (b) develop a socially validated revision of the scoring system to allow more accurate classification of mentally retarded individuals as having mild, moderate, or severe behavior problems. On the basis of the modal ratings obtained from various service agencies for "occasionally" and "frequently" on Part II of the ABS, we constructed a revised scoring system. Preliminary use of the scoring system suggests satisfactory agreement between "severity profile" scores and subjective ratings of individuals classified by service agencies as demonstrating mild, moderate, or severe behavior problems.
(a) 评估康复工作人员对《美国智力缺陷协会适应性行为量表》（ABS）第二部分中适应不良行为严重程度的评分，并基于所获得的评分，(b) 开发一种经过社会验证的评分系统修订版，以便更准确地将智障个体分类为有轻度、中度或重度行为问题。根据从各服务机构获得的关于ABS第二部分中“偶尔”和“频繁”的典型评分，我们构建了一个修订后的评分系统。该评分系统的初步使用表明，“严重程度概况”分数与服务机构分类为有轻度、中度或重度行为问题的个体的主观评分之间具有令人满意的一致性。
