Targeted programs designed to prevent conduct problems in childhood and adolescence rely on screening systems to identify high-risk individuals. This study examines the proximal usefulness of a multiple-gating approach to screening, using teacher and parent ratings in a 2-step procedure with a sample of 382 kindergarten children. The study explored differences in the accuracy of the 2 steps of screening information and whether parents' reports of parenting practices augments the prediction of negative outcomes. The 2-step screening system was found to effectively predict negative behavior outcomes over 1 year later, although some false-positive and false-negative predictions were evident. The Parenting Practices Screen did not substantially add to prediction accuracy. The discussion emphasizes the potential contributions and problems of using screening measures.
旨在预防儿童和青少年行为问题的针对性项目依赖筛查系统来识别高危个体。本研究使用教师和家长评分，通过两步程序，对382名幼儿园儿童样本进行研究，考察了多重筛选方法在筛查中的近期效用。该研究探讨了筛查信息两步程序在准确性上的差异，以及家长对育儿方式的报告是否能增强对负面结果的预测。尽管存在一些假阳性和假阴性预测，但发现两步筛查系统能有效预测一年多后的负面行为结果。育儿方式筛查在预测准确性方面并没有显著提高。讨论强调了使用筛查措施的潜在贡献和问题。
