摘要本研究旨在探讨癫痫儿童行为评量的被试认同程度。告密者完成Achenbach 1991年的量表:父母完成了儿童行为检查表(CBCL),教师完成了教师报告表(TRF),青年完成了CBCL的青年自我报告表(YSR)。分析包括作为一个功能的线人,儿童性别和条件的严重程度(活动与非活动性癫痫)的一致性程度的评级。结果表明,在所有四种类型的评分员(母亲,父亲,教师和青少年)有一个类似的模式。母亲的评分往往最高,青年的评分往往最低。一般来说,成人评分者之间的一致性大于青年和成人之间的一致性。母亲和教师报告更多的内化症状比青年,母亲,父亲和教师的评价外化症状没有显着差异。虽然有一些有趣的趋势,但性别和病情严重程度对评级之间的一致性没有显着影响。(C)2000学术出版社
The purpose of this study was to determine the degree of informant agreement for behavioral ratings of children with epilepsy. Informants completed Achenbach's 1991 scales: parents completed the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), teachers completed the Teacher's Report Form (TRF), and youth completed the Youth Self-Report Form of the CBCL (YSR). Analyses included degree of concordance of ratings as a function of informant, child gender, and condition severity (active vs inactive epilepsy). Results indicated that across all four types of raters (mothers, fathers, teachers, and adolescents) there was a similar pattern. Mothers' ratings tended to be the highest and youths' ratings tended to be the lowest across scales. In general, agreement among adult raters was greater than between youth and adults. Mothers and teachers reported more internalizing symptoms than did youth; mother, father, and teacher ratings on externalizing symptoms were not significantly different from each other. There were no significant effects of gender and condition severity on concordance among ratings although there were some interesting trends. (C) 2000 Academic Press
