这项研究考察了爱荷华州赌博任务（IGT；Bechara、Damasio、Damasio 和 Anderson，1994）的表现，作为低收入学龄儿童情感决策的衡量标准，并认为其效用是冲动的直接指标。一百九十三名 8 至 11 岁的孩子执行了爱荷华州赌博任务的计算机版本，这是一项经过验证的决策衡量标准。使用多级建模来检查儿童在任务过程中的表现，并使用年龄、性别和教师对儿童冲动的评分（BIS-11；Patton、Stanford 和 Barratt，1995）来预测儿童在爱荷华州赌博的表现。较高的冲动性分数预示着爱荷华州赌博表现斜率的下降，这表明冲动性得分较高的学生在任务块中的选择更加不利。结果支持了爱荷华州赌博任务作为衡量低收入少数族裔儿童冲动程度的有效性的证据。 (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. 保留所有权利。
This study examined performance on the Iowa Gambling Task (IGT; Bechara, Damasio, Damasio, & Anderson, 1994) as a measure of low-income school-aged children's affective decision-making and considered its utility as a direct indicator of impulsivity. One hundred and ninety-three 8-11 year olds performed a computerized version of the Iowa Gambling Task, a validated measure of decision-making. Multi-level modeling was used to examine children's performance over the course of the task, with age, gender, and teachers' ratings of child impulsivity (BIS-11; Patton, Stanford, & Barratt, 1995) used to predict children's Iowa Gambling performance. Higher impulsivity scores predicted a decrease in slope of Iowa Gambling performance, indicating students rated higher on impulsivity chose more disadvantageously across the task blocks. Results support evidence of the validity of the Iowa Gambling Task as a measure of impulsivity in low-income minority children. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
