唐氏综合症患者在适应技能上有很大的差异。然而，很少有研究集中在早期发展阶段或适应技能变异的潜在来源上。这项研究描述了唐氏综合症儿童的适应能力，并调查了与适应能力相关的儿童特征。研究对象为44名患有唐氏综合征的儿童，年龄2.50~7.99岁(男性=4.66岁，SD=1.46岁)。采用Vineland适应行为量表-3(VABS-3)综合面试表，评估三个核心领域的适应行为：社交、日常生活和沟通技能。照顾者还报告了运动技能和自闭症谱系障碍症状。评估了儿童的认知能力。比较三个VABS-3核心领域的平均标准分数表现的分析表明，所有领域之间存在显著差异，导致了社会化和日常生活与沟通技能的群体水平模式。在个体水平上，确定了10种不同的相对强弱模式，只有18%的参与者在适应技能领域标准分数之间存在显著差异，对应于组水平的显著差异模式。儿童特征(认知能力、运动技能和自闭症谱系障碍症状)与VABS-3适应领域标准分数显著相关。这些发现强调了个性化干预计划的重要性，该计划的重点是在考虑儿童的相对适应优势和弱点的基础上，提高唐氏综合症儿童的适应技能。
There is substantial variability in adaptive skills among individuals with Down syndrome. Few studies, however, have focused on the early developmental period or on the potential sources of variability in adaptive skills. This study characterizes adaptive skills in young children with Down syndrome and investigates child characteristics associated with adaptive skills. Participants were 44 children with Down syndrome ranging in age from 2.50 to 7.99 years (M = 4.66 years, SD = 1.46). The Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales-3 (VABS-3) Comprehensive Interview Form was used to assess adaptive behavior in the three core domains: socialization, daily living, and communication skills. Caregivers also reported on motor skills and autism spectrum disorder symptoms. Child cognitive abilities were assessed. Analyses comparing mean standard score performance across the three VABS-3 core domains demonstrated significant differences between all pairs of domains, resulting in a group-level pattern of socialization > daily living > communication skills. At the individual level, 10 different patterns of relative strength and weakness were identified, with only 18% of participants evidencing significant differences between adaptive skill domain standard scores corresponding to the group-level pattern of significant differences. Child characteristics (cognitive abilities, motor skills, and autism spectrum disorder symptoms) were significantly associated with VABS-3 adaptive domain standard scores. These findings underscore the importance of individualizing intervention programs focused on improving the adaptive skills of young children with Down syndrome based on consideration of the child’s relative adaptive strengths and weaknesses.
