儿童注意力控制量表（ACS-C）是一种广泛使用的自我报告问卷，用于衡量青少年的注意力控制。先前的研究检查了 ACS-C 的因子结构和验证，并得出了具有注意力聚焦和注意力转移子量表的 2 因子结构。本研究对临床转介的焦虑青少年（N = 442，年龄 6 至 16 岁）的大型、种族多样化样本进行了验证性因素分析，以比较三个模型的模型拟合情况，即 ACS-C 的原始双因素模型、修改后的 ACS-C 的双因素模型（从注意力聚焦重新分配到注意转移的两个项目、从注意力聚焦中删除的三个项目、从注意力转移中删除的两个项目），和单因素模型。结果揭示了最适合两因素修正 ACS-C 的模型。该模型在不同性别之间具有很强的因子不变性，在不同种族之间具有部分不变性，并且在不同年龄之间具有变异性。此外，双因素改良 ACS-C 的总分和子量表得分与焦虑和抑郁症状量表得分相关，支持其同时有效性。研究结果证实了改良后的 ACS-C 的双因子结构。讨论了与儿童注意力控制相关的未来研究意义。
The Attentional Control Scale for Children (ACS-C) is a widely used self-report questionnaire that measures attentional control in youth. Previous research examined factor-structure and validation of the ACS-C and yielded a 2-factor structure with Attentional Focusing and Attentional Shifting subscales. This study used a confirmatory factor analysis in a large, ethnically diverse sample of clinic-referred anxious youth (N = 442, ages 6 to 16 years) to compare model fit of three models, the original two-factor model of the ACS-C, a two-factor model of a modified ACS-C (two items re-assigned from Attentional Focusing to Attentional Shifting, three items removed from Attentional Focusing, and two items removed from Attentional Shifting), and a single-factor model. Results reveal best model fit for the two-factor modified ACS-C. This model had strong factorial invariance across sex, partial invariance across ethnicity, and was variant across age. Also, total and subscale scores for the two-factor modified ACS-C correlated with anxiety and depression symptom scale scores, supporting its concurrent validity. Findings confirm the two-factor structure of the modified ACS-C. Future research implications relating to attentional control in children are discussed.
