抽象的。常规建议进行普遍筛查,以确定是否存在问题,从而启动解决问题的流程和模型。本研究的目的是评估两种筛选发展方法的有效性的分数推断为两名教师筛选儿童的行为和情绪风险。通过对20所小学472名儿童进行行为和情绪风险筛查的数据分析,比较了与筛查分数相关的信度和效度指标。两种工具的筛选分数与学业成绩测试分数、年级和高危学生的分类显著相关。虽然有证据表明,风险分类的特异性是更好的一个筛选,这两个工具确定的风险具有良好的可靠性和有效性。研究议程和实践的影响进行了讨论。
Abstract. Universal screening has been routinely advised for determining the presence of problems for initiating problem-solving processes and models. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of two screener development methods on the validity of score inferences for two teacher screeners of child behavioral and emotional risk. The reliability and validity indices associated with screener scores were compared by analyzing data for 472 children from 20 elementary schools who were screened for behavioral and emotional risk. Screener scores from both instruments were significantly related to academic achievement test scores, grades, and classification of at-risk students. Although there was evidence that specificity of risk classification was better for one screener, both instruments identified risk with good reliability and validity. A research agenda and practice implications are discussed.
