Abstract

BACKGROUND

We validated the German version of the Glasgow Sensory Questionnaire (GSQ), a self-report questionnaire for adults assessing the processing of stimuli regarding hypo- and hypersensitivity in seven sensory modalities. Since the GSQ is intended for the use in autistic adults, we aimed to complement our previous study on students with high and low Autism Spectrum Quotient (AQ; Zeisel et al., BMC Psychiatry 23:426, 2023), by surveying groups of autistic and non-autistic adults, to present the sensory processing profiles of the two groups, to identify the factor structure of the questionnaire in a group of autistic individuals and to identify the diagnostic value of a cut-off score for heightened sensory sensitivity in German autistic adults.

METHODS

A sample of autistic and non-autistic adults (each n = 86) completed the same German version of the GSQ as used in Zeisel et al. (BMC Psychiatry 23:426, 2023), the AQ and the Symptom Checklist-90-Revised. Factor analyses were applied.

RESULTS

The German GSQ showed good to excellent reliability. While the factor structure could not be confirmed, main findings of other validation studies were replicated: AQ and GSQ scores were moderately to strongly associated, with higher AQ and GSQ scores for autistic than for non-autistic individuals. Autistic individuals also showed more consistency in their sensitivity across sensory modalities. A third of the autistic participants had heightened sensory sensitivity, when a cut-off was set at the 95th percentile of the non-autism group.

CONCLUSIONS

Overall, this German version of the GSQ can be considered a validated self-report questionnaire assessing sensory sensitivity particularly in autistic individuals. It can be used to assess sensory sensitivity in the diagnostic process of autism spectrum disorder and to assess an individual's sensory needs and strengths for best possible support. Further studies are required, especially to assess the internal structure of the GSQ.

摘要

背景

我们对格拉斯哥感觉问卷（GSQ）的德文版进行了验证，这是一份针对成年人的自我报告问卷，用于评估七种感觉模式下关于感觉减退和感觉过敏的刺激处理情况。由于GSQ旨在用于成年自闭症患者，我们旨在通过对自闭症和非自闭症成年人群体进行调查，以补充我们之前关于高低自闭症谱系商数（AQ；蔡塞尔等人，《BMC精神病学》23:426，2023）学生的研究，呈现两组的感觉处理概况，确定问卷在一组自闭症个体中的因子结构，并确定德文版自闭症成年患者感觉敏感性升高的临界值的诊断价值。

方法

一个由自闭症和非自闭症成年人组成的样本（每组n = 86）完成了与蔡塞尔等人（《BMC精神病学》23:426，2023）中使用的相同德文版GSQ、AQ和症状自评量表90修订版。应用了因子分析。

结果

德文版GSQ显示出良好到优秀的信度。虽然因子结构未得到证实，但其他验证研究的主要发现得到了重复：AQ和GSQ分数呈中度到强相关，自闭症个体的AQ和GSQ分数高于非自闭症个体。自闭症个体在不同感觉模式下的敏感性也表现出更高的一致性。当以非自闭症组的第95百分位数为临界值时，三分之一的自闭症参与者感觉敏感性升高。
