目的：自闭症行为量表（ABI）是一种新的测量方法，用于评估被诊断患有自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）的参与者（年龄：3岁-成年）的核心和相关症状的变化。它是一个基于网络的工具，有五个领域（两个ASD核心领域：社会沟通，限制和重复行为;三个相关领域：心理健康，自我调节和挑战行为）。本研究描述了ABI的设计，开发和初始心理测量特性。方法：ABI项目生成后，审查现有的措施和专家临床医生的输入。初始ABI量表包含161个项目，减少到适合的因素分析模型，保留足够的可靠性项目。两个版本的量表，ABI全（ABI-F; 93项）和ABI短版本（ABI-S; 36项），开发和评价的心理测量学特性，包括有效性比较常用的措施。这两个量表都是向参与研究参与者的父母和医疗保健专业人员（HCP）进行的。结果如下：家长对ABI的评分的重测信度（组内相关系数[ICC] = 0.79）是稳健的，并与现有的量表相比。HCP评级的重测相关性通常低于父母评级。ABI核心领域和比较指标强相关（r ≥ 0.70），表现出良好的并行效度。结论：总体而言，ABI显示出作为ASD临床研究中测量自闭症核心症状变化的工具的前景，需要进一步验证。
Objective: Autism Behavior Inventory (ABI) is a new measure for assessing changes in core and associated symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in participants (ages: 3 years-adulthood) diagnosed with ASD. It is a web-based tool with five domains (two ASD core domains: social communication, restrictive and repetitive behaviors; three associated domains: mental health, self-regulation, and challenging behavior). This study describes design, development, and initial psychometric properties of the ABI. Methods: ABI items were generated following review of existing measures and inputs from expert clinicians. Initial ABI scale contained 161 items that were reduced to fit a factor analytic model, retaining items of adequate reliability. Two versions of the scale, ABI-full (ABI-F; 93 items) and ABI-short version (ABI-S; 36 items), were developed and evaluated for psychometric properties, including validity comparisons with commonly used measures. Both scales were administered to parents and healthcare professionals (HCPs) involved with study participants. Results: Test–retest reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] = 0.79) for parent ratings on ABI was robust and compared favorably to existing scales. Test–retest correlations for HCP ratings were generally lower versus parent ratings. ABI core domains and comparison measures strongly correlated (r ≥ 0.70), demonstrating good concurrent validity. Conclusions: Overall, ABI demonstrates promise as a tool for measuring change in core symptoms of autism in ASD clinical studies, with further validation required.
