To examine the reliability of the survey form of the Leyton Obsessional Inventory-Child Version (LOI-CV), ascertain the prevalence of self-reported obsessive-compulsive behaviour together with age and sex differences and identify the most common obsessive-compulsive behaviours and their associated level of interference.
The survey form of the LOI-CV was administered to a large sample of children and adolescents attending regular schools. Participants were aged between 8 and 16 years (n = 1602).
We found the survey instrument to have adequate internal consistency and test-retest reliability. There was an age-related decline in self-reported obsessive-compulsive behaviour and girls reported a higher level of obsessive-compulsive behaviour than boys. The most common obsessive-compulsive behaviours included: repeated thoughts or words, having trouble making decisions, having to do certain things and doing things in the exact manner and having a bad conscience. For the most part, these behaviours were associated with low levels of interference. However, for a significant minority of youth (5 to 14%), these behaviours did cause problems and significantly interfered with their lives.
Although many obsessive-compulsive behaviours are part of normal development, they may still be problematic for some children and adolescents.
检验莱顿强迫观念量表儿童版(LOI-CV)调查问卷的可靠性,确定自我报告的强迫行为的患病率以及年龄和性别差异,并识别最常见的强迫行为及其相关的干扰程度。
将LOI-CV调查问卷发放给大量就读于正规学校的儿童和青少年。参与者年龄在8至16岁之间(n = 1602)。
我们发现该调查问卷具有足够的内部一致性和重测信度。自我报告的强迫行为存在与年龄相关的下降趋势,且女孩报告的强迫行为水平高于男孩。最常见的强迫行为包括:反复出现的想法或话语、难以做出决定、必须做某些事情并以特定方式做事以及有愧疚感。在大多数情况下,这些行为的干扰程度较低。然而,对于相当一部分青少年(5%至14%)来说,这些行为确实会引发问题并严重干扰他们的生活。
尽管许多强迫行为是正常发育的一部分,但对一些儿童和青少年来说,它们仍可能存在问题。
