目的评估父母和儿童在接受类似的问卷调查时,是否报告了相同的儿童近视活动信息。方法对406名儿童及其父母进行问卷调查,分析父母报告与儿童报告的一致性。这些问卷是在1994年的奥林达近视纵向研究测试中完成的。每个孩子和父母都被要求对孩子阅读的频率进行分类。此外,每个受试者被要求估计每周在五项视觉活动中花费多少小时。采用加权kappa统计、配对t检验和多分类logistic回归进行分析。结果在儿童报告与父母报告的阅读分类的比较中发现加权kappa = 0.42(中等一致性)。家长和孩子报告的做作业(0.21),阅读娱乐(0.31),看电视(0.31),玩电子游戏(0.31),从事体育/户外活动(0.26)的时间之间的协议是公平的每一个活动。结论虽然结果表明,公平到中等水平的协议,更好的方法报告近工作活动需要为未来的近视研究。
purpose To assess whether parents and children report the same information regarding children's near vision activities when given similar questionnaires. methods Data from questionnaires administered to 406 children and their parents were analyzed to evaluate the agreement between parent and child reports. The questionnaires were completed during the 1994 testing of the Orinda Longitudinal Study of Myopia. Each child and parent was asked to categorize how often the child reads for pleasure. In addition, each subject was asked to estimate how many hours per week were spent in each of five visual activities. The weighted kappa statistic, paired t-tests, and polytomous logistic regression were used for analyses. results A weighted kappa = 0.42 (moderate agreement) was found in the comparison of child-reported vs. parent-reported classification of reading. Agreement between parent- and child-reported number of hours spent doing homework (0.21), reading for pleasure (0.31), watching television (0.31), playing video games (0.31), and engaging in sports/outdoor activities (0.26) was fair for each activity. conclusions Although the results indicate fair to moderate levels of agreement, better methods of reporting near-work activities are needed for future myopia research.
