This study aims to validate a parent rating questionnaire of Home Numeracy Experiences (HNE) for the assessment of the frequency of the literacy and numeracy activities that parents use with their children with disabilities. Additionally, this study aims to provide evidence for reliability and validity of the parental attitudes toward mathematics and reading scale (PATM) (LeFevre et al. 2009). The sample of Study 1 comprised 60 couples, while the sample of Study 2 comprised 127 couples. All of them had a child with disabilities aged between 4 to 7 years old we performed six exploratory factor analyses. In Study 2, we performed CFA to confirm the proposed factor structures for the above measures (benchmarks: 1-factor model: χ=49.423, p = 0.313 > 0.05, x/df = 1.24; GFI = 0.92; AGFI = 0.87; SRMR = 0.05; CFI = 0.96; RMSEA = 0.05 - direct literacy activities: 1-factor model: x= 6.128, p = 0.412 > 0.05, x/df = 0.34; GFI = 0.91; AGFI = 0.88; SRMR = 0.03; CFI = 0.97; RMSEA = 0.06 - fine motor skills: 2-factor model: x=88.436, p = 0.117 > 0.05, x/df =1.47; GFI = 0.92; AGFI = 0.89; SRMR = 0.02; CFI = 0.96; RMSEA = 0.05 - general skills: 2-factor model: x=76.020, p = 0.432 > 0.05, x/df = 1.81; GFI = 0.90; AGFI = 0.88; SRMR = 0.03; CFI = 0.97; RMSEA = 0.05 and numeracy-related activities: 4-factor model: x=186.104, p = 0.516 > 0.05, x/df = 1.55; GFI = 0.90; AGFI = 0.87; SRMR = 0.05; CFI = 0.98; RMSEA = 0.06 and parent's/caregiver's attitudes toward mathematics: 3-factor model: x=74.250, p = 0.207 > 0.05, x/df = 1.65; GFI = 0.93; AGFI = 0.89; SRMR = 0.06; CFI = 0.98; RMSEA = 0.03). No floor-ceiling effects were observed. Assessment of measurement invariance provided us with strong evidence that the proposed structure is both meaningful for mothers and fathers. A good fit of the data suggested the assessment of all nested invariance models. Results suggested that the Greek adaptation of the Parents' Attitudes Toward Mathematics and Home Numeracy Experiences Questionnaire is a reliable and valid measure.
本研究旨在验证一份家庭数学体验（HNE）家长评定问卷，以评估家长与残疾子女开展读写和算术活动的频率。此外，本研究旨在为家长对数学和阅读量表（PATM）（LeFevre等人，2009年）的可靠性和有效性提供证据。研究1的样本包括60对夫妻，研究2的样本包括127对夫妻。他们都有一个4至7岁的残疾子女。我们进行了六项探索性因素分析。在研究2中，我们进行了验证性因素分析，以确认上述测量方法的拟议因素结构（基准：单因素模型：χ=49.423，p = 0.313 > 0.05，x/df = 1.24；GFI = 0.92；AGFI = 0.87；SRMR = 0.05；CFI = 0.96；RMSEA = 0.05 - 直接读写活动：单因素模型：x = 6.128，p = 0.412 > 0.05，x/df = 0.34；GFI = 0.91；AGFI = 0.88；SRMR = 0.03；CFI = 0.97；RMSEA = 0.06 - 精细运动技能：双因素模型：x = 88.436，p = 0.117 > 0.05，x/df = 1.47；GFI = 0.92；AGFI = 0.89；SRMR = 0.02；CFI = 0.96；RMSEA = 0.05 - 一般技能：双因素模型：x = 76.020，p = 0.432 > 0.05，x/df = 1.81；GFI = 0.90；AGFI = 0.88；SRMR = 0.03；CFI = 0.97；RMSEA = 0.05以及算术相关活动：四因素模型：x = 186.104，p = 0.516 > 0.05，x/df = 1.55；GFI = 0.90；AGFI = 0.87；SRMR = 0.05；CFI = 0.98；RMSEA = 0.06以及家长/照顾者对数学的态度：三因素模型：x = 74.250，p = 0.207 > 0.05，x/df = 1.65；GFI = 0.93；AGFI = 0.89；SRMR = 0.06；CFI = 0.98；RMSEA = 0.03）。未观察到地板效应和天花板效应。测量不变性评估为我们提供了有力证据，表明所提议结构对母亲和父亲都有意义。数据的良好拟合表明对所有嵌套不变性模型进行了评估。结果表明，希腊语版的家长对数学和家庭数学体验问卷是一种可靠且有效的测量工具。
