目的检验42项婴儿-幼儿社会和情绪简易评定量表（BITSEA）的信度和效度。方法对1,237名12 ~ 36个月的健康新生儿的父母进行婴儿-幼儿社会和情绪评估（ITSEA）/BITSEA、儿童行为量表（CBCL）/1.5-5、麦克阿瑟沟通发展量表词汇表和担忧问题。在一个子样本中，独立评估者对婴幼儿行为进行了评级。结果重测信度良好，评价者间（母亲/父亲和父母/托儿服务提供者）一致性良好。支持效度，BITSEA问题与并发评估员问题评分和CBCL/1.5-5分数相关，并预测CBCL/1.5-5和ITSEA问题分数一年后。BITSEA能力的措施与同时观察到的能力和预测以后ITSEA能力的措施。支持判别效度，只有23%的高BITSEA问题得分者延迟词汇。此外，结合BITSEA问题/能力临界点确定了85%的亚临床/临床CBCL/1.5-5评分，同时保持了可接受的特异性（75%）。结论研究结果支持BITSEA作为筛选社会情绪/行为问题和延迟的社会情绪能力。
Objective To examine the reliability and validity of the 42-item Brief Infant-Toddler Social and Emotional Assessment (BITSEA), a screener for social-emotional/behavioral problems and delays in competence. Method Parents in a representative healthy birth cohort of 1,237 infants aged 12 to 36 months completed the Infant-Toddler Social and Emotional Assessment (ITSEA)/BITSEA, the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL)/1.5-5, the MacArthur Communication Developmental Inventory vocabulary checklist, and worry questions. In a subsample, independent evaluators rated infant-toddler behavior. Results Test-retest reliability was excellent and interrater agreement (mother/father and parent/child-care provider) was good. Supporting validity, BITSEA problems correlated with concurrent evaluator problem ratings and CBCL/1.5-5 scores and also predicted CBCL/1.5-5 and ITSEA problem scores one year later. BITSEA measures of competence correlated with concurrent observed competence and predicted later ITSEA competence measures. Supporting discriminant validity, only 23% of high BITSEA problem scorers had delayed vocabulary. Moreover, the combined BITSEA problem/competence cutpoints identified 85% of subclinical/clinical CBCL/1.5-5 scores, while maintaining acceptable specificity (75%). Conclusions Findings support the BITSEA as a screener for social-emotional/behavioral problems and delays in social-emotional competence.
