目的：ADHD症状和正常行为(SWAN)评定量表的优点和缺点不同于以往的ADHD父母报告，因为它的设计也是为了测量症状谱中阳性端的变异性。方法：对天鹅的心理测量学特性进行测试，并与ADHD的测量工具--破坏性行为评定量表(DBRS)进行比较。结果：SWAN具有与DBRS相当的效度、信度和遗传度。此外，天鹅和DBRS的曲线图显示出异方差，这支持了天鹅作为积极注意和冲动调节行为的首选测量。结论：SWAN在ADHD症状维度的适应端测量额外变异的能力使其成为ADHD行为遗传学研究的一个有前途的工具。(J.of Att.迪什。2013；17(2)152-162)
Objective: The Strengths and Weaknesses of ADHD Symptoms and Normal Behavior (SWAN) Rating Scale differs from previous parent reports of ADHD in that it was designed to also measure variability at the positive end of the symptom spectrum. Method: The psychometric properties of the SWAN were tested and compared with an established measure of ADHD, the Disruptive Behavior Rating Scale (DBRS). Results: The SWAN demonstrates comparable validity, reliability, and heritability to the DBRS. Furthermore, plots of the SWAN and DBRS reveal heteroscedasticity, which supports the SWAN as a preferred measure of positive attention and impulse regulation behaviors. Conclusion: The ability of the SWAN to measure additional variance at the adaptive end of the ADHD symptom dimensions makes it a promising tool for behavioral genetic studies of ADHD. (J. of Att.
