本研究的目的是调查工作记忆评定量表（WMRS）的潜力，这是一种基于观察者的评定量表，反映工作记忆较差儿童的行为困难。研究结果表明良好的内部可靠性和足够的心理测量特性可供教师用作筛选工具。根据自动工作记忆评估 (AWMA) 和 WISC-IV 工作记忆指数的测量，WMRS 上较高（即问题较多）的教师评分与工作记忆技能直接评估中的记忆得分较低相关。 WMRS 的使用将使教育工作者能够在课堂上利用他们的专业知识，及早发现有工作记忆障碍的儿童。 (C) 2008 Elsevier Inc. 保留所有权利。
The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential of the Working Memory Rating Scale (WMRS), an observer-based rating scale that reflects behavioral difficulties of children with poor working memory. The findings indicate good internal reliability and adequate psychometric properties for use as a screening tool by teachers. Higher (i.e., more problematic) teacher ratings on the WMRS were associated with lower memory scores on direct assessments of working memory skills, as measured by the Automated Working Memory Assessment (AWMA) and the WISC-IV Working Memory Index. The use of the WMRS will allow educators to draw on their expertise in the classroom for early detection of children with working memory failures. (C) 2008 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
