在过去二十年中，围产期和新生儿护理方面的进展大大改善了高危婴儿的存活率。本研究的目的是评估贝利婴幼儿发育筛查量表在波斯语儿童中的信度和效度。这是一项对403名1 - 42个月大的儿童进行的横断面前瞻性研究。Bayley量表筛选工具包括五个领域（认知、接受和表达交流以及精细和粗大运动项目），用于测量婴儿和幼儿的发育。研究的心理测量学特性包括量表的表面效度和内容效度，以及对量表的文化和语言修改及其重测和评分员间信度。一个专家小组改变了一些与文化和语言问题有关的测试项目。在几乎所有的年龄组中，文化或语言的变化是在通信领域的项目。根据内部一致性的Cronbach’s alpha，认知量表的信度为r = 0.79，接受量表的信度为r = 0.76。表达沟通、精细运动和粗大运动量表的信度分别为r = 0.81、r = 0.80和r = 0.81。使用因素分析和年龄组的平均分数的比较，证实了结构效度的测试。贝利量表的评估者内和评估者间可靠性为良好到优秀。结果表明，贝利量表在本研究中具有较高的信度。因此，该量表可用于波斯人口。
Advances in perinatal and neonatal care have substantially improved the survival of at-risk infants over the past two decades. The purpose of this study was to assess the reliability and validity of the Bayley Scales of infant and toddler developmental Screening test in Persian-speaking children. This was a cross-sectional prospective study of 403 children aged 1 - 42-months. The Bayley scales screening instrument, which consists of five domains (cognitive, receptive, and expressive communication and fine and gross motor items), was used to measure infants’ and toddlers’ development. The psychometric properties examined included the face and content validity of the scale, in addition to cultural and linguistic modifications to the scale and its test-retest and inter-rater reliability. An expert team changed some of the test items relating to cultural and linguistic issues. In almost all the age groups, cultural or linguistic changes were made to items in the communication domains. According to Cronbach’s alpha for internal consistency, the reliability of the cognitive scale was r = 0.79, and the reliability of the receptive scale was r = 0.76. The reliability for expressive communication, fine motor, and gross motor scales was r = 0.81, r = 0.80, and r = 0.81, respectively. The construct validity of the tests was confirmed using a factor analysis and comparison of the mean scores of the age groups. The intra- and inter-rater reliabilities of the Bayley Scales were good-to-excellent. The results indicated that the Bayley Scales had a high level of reliability in the present study. Thus, the scale can be used in a Persian population.
