本研究的目的是检验儿童运动评估组合(MABC-2)(Henderson，Sugden，&Barnett，2007)第一年龄段在希腊学龄前儿童中的信度和效度的具体方面。研究对象为183名儿童，年龄从36岁到(男=50个月，男=9个月)。用组内相关系数(ICC)评价MABC-2的重测信度。每个运动领域的项目的Cronbach‘sα被估计以确定内部一致性。验证性因素分析用于检验MABC-2测验的因素效度。并计算各条目得分与总分的相关系数，以进一步检验效度。除绘制轨迹任务为中等外，其余测验项目的ICC均为良好。Cronbach的阿尔法系数值分别为0.51、0.70和0.66，分别代表手动灵巧性、瞄准和接球以及平衡。在验证性因子分析中，拟合度指数表明数据与模型的拟合程度令人满意。各测试项目与总分的相关系数为中等。结果表明，MABC-2可以作为评估3-5岁儿童运动困难的可靠、有效的工具。(C)2011爱思唯尔有限公司。保留所有权利。
The purpose of this study was to examine specific aspects of the reliability and validity of age band 1 of the Movement Assessment Battery for Children - Second Edition (MABC-2) (Henderson, Sugden, & Barnett, 2007) in Greek preschool children. One hundred and eighty-three children participated in the study; the children ranged in age from 36 to 64 months old (M=50 months, SD=9 months). Test-retest reliability of the MABC-2 was evaluated using intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Cronbach's alpha for the items of each motor domain was estimated to determine internal consistency. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to examine the factorial validity of the MABC-2 test. Correlation coefficients among individual item scores and the total score were also calculated to further examine validity. The ICC for all test items was good, except for the drawing trail task, which was moderate. Cronbach's alpha coefficient values were .51, .70 and .66 for manual dexterity, aiming and catching, and balance, respectively. In the confirmatory factor analysis, goodness-of-fit indices suggested a satisfactory fit of the data to the model. The correlation coefficients between each test item and the total score were moderate. The results suggest that the MABC-2 can be a reliable and valid tool for the assessment of movement difficulties among 3-5-year-old children. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
