This study examined the validity and the internal and interrater reliability of the Wing Subgroups Questionnaire (WSQ), an assessment that classifies children with autism into one of three subtypes. Subjects were 42 students enrolled in multihandicapped special education classrooms. Results indicated that items pertaining to the active-but-odd and the aloof subtypes, and to typical development, demonstrated good consistency, whereas passive subtype items showed moderate consistency. Interrater reliability was good for all subtypes utilizing intraclass correlations, but it was moderate with regard to percentage agreement of subtype diagnosis. Interscale correlations were mostly low or negative, suggesting that the subtype scales are measuring distinct constructs. Significant differences among the subtypes were found on three measures of communication, three measures of social interaction, two measures of stereotypic behavior, and one measure of temper/aggression.
本研究检验了温氏亚组问卷（WSQ）的效度以及内部信度和评分者间信度，该评估将自闭症儿童分为三种亚型之一。研究对象为42名就读于多重残疾特殊教育班级的学生。结果表明，与活跃但怪异亚型、冷漠亚型以及典型发育相关的项目表现出良好的一致性，而被动亚型项目的一致性为中等。使用组内相关系数时，各亚型的评分者间信度良好，但在亚型诊断的百分比一致性方面为中等。分量表间的相关性大多较低或为负，表明亚型量表测量的是不同的结构。在沟通的三项指标、社交互动的三项指标、刻板行为的两项指标以及脾气/攻击行为的一项指标上，各亚型之间存在显著差异。
