本文分析了阿赫博尔德、Lutman、Gregory、O'Neil和Nikolpoulos（2002）设计的儿童人工耳蜗植入评估问卷的信度和效度。61名青少年（年龄范围5至16岁）的父母，谁拥有至少3年的植入，回答了问卷调查和采访。11个问卷量表的α可靠性在0.41和0.74之间变化。内容效度通过与家长对访谈的反应进行比较来评估。总体而言，家长的关注与访谈中表达的意见以及问卷评估的意见是一致的。然而，在访谈中发现了一些额外的问题，这表明有必要扩大调查表的范围。通过识别对比案例，在每个量表中得分很低或很高，并分析在访谈中获得的描述，评估标准效度。对于九个尺度，这种分析提供了支持的问卷的有效性，两个尺度没有产生积极的结果。与面试成绩的相关性计算只有四个尺度：两个是积极的和显着的，而两个不显着。问卷量表的因素分析确定了四个组成部分，解释为儿童的功能，在社会情况下，植入过程中的态度，需要在长期的支持，和有效使用的植入。进一步研究的建议和描述性的评论提供了家长。
This paper analyzes the reliability and validity of a questionnaire designed by Archbold, Lutman, Gregory, O'Neil, and Nikolpoulos (2002) for the assessment of pediatric cochlear implantation. Parents of 61 youngsters (age range 5 to 16 years), who had the implant for at least 3 years, responded to the questionnaire and to an interview. The alpha reliability of the 11 questionnaire scales varied between .41 and .74. Content validity was assessed by comparison with parents' responses to an interview. In general, there was agreement between parents' concerns and views expressed in the interview and as assessed by the questionnaire. However, extra issues were identified in the interview, which suggest the need for increasing the breadth of the questionnaire. Criterion validity was assessed by identifying contrasting cases, with very low or very high scores in each scale, and analyzing the descriptions obtained in the interviews. For nine scales this analysis provided support for the validity of the questionnaire; two scales did not produce positive results. Correlations with interview scores were calculated for only four scales: two were positive and significant whereas two were not significant. A factor analysis of the questionnaire scales identified four components, interpreted as the child's functioning in social situations, attitudes to the process of implantation, support required in the long term, and effective use of the implant. Suggestions for further research and descriptive comments provided by parents are included.
