特殊评估是对个别选定的变量和函数关系的测量，或者是从个别定制的评估刺激或情境中推导出来的，以使其与特定个体的相关性最大化。本文首先回顾了特殊评估的各种定义和临床应用。行为问题和因果关系的几个特性为特殊评估提供了概念基础：(a)行为问题在属性、反应系统和维度方面的个体差异，以及(b)与特定行为问题相关的因果关系的个体差异。由于这些个体差异，一般化的测量方法往往反映出与个体目标结构无关的方差。我们通过首先总结用于开发一般化结构标准化测量的心理测量学原理为何会在一般化测量与个体目标结构特征之间产生不一致，来提出一个特殊评估的心理测量学框架。然后，我们开发了一个特殊评估的心理测量学框架，该框架结合了多层模型（随机效应）的组成部分以及应用于每个个体重复测量的验证性因素分析。我们还为特殊评估工具的开发和评估提供了一个逐步指南。(c) 2008爱思唯尔有限公司。保留所有权利。
Idiographic assessment is the measurement of variables and functional relations that have been individually selected, or derived from assessment stimuli or contexts that have been individually tailored, to maximize their relevance for the particular individual. This article first reviews various definitions and clinical applications of idiographic assessment. Several properties of behavior problems and causal relations provide the conceptual basis for idiographic assessment: (a) differences across persons in the attributes, response systems, and dimensions of a behavior problem, and (b) differences across persons in the causal relations relevant to a particular behavior problem, Because of these individual differences. nomothetic measures often reflect variance that is irrelevant to the targeted construct for the individual. We present a psychometric framework for idiographic assessment by first summarizing why the psychometric principles used to develop standardized measures of nomothetic constructs can create incongruity between the nomothetic measure and the characteristics of the targeted construct for an individual. We then develop a psychometric framework for idiographic assessment that combines components of multilevel modeling (random effects) and confirmatory factor analyses applied to repeated measurements of each individual. We also provide a step-by-step guide for the development and evaluation of an idiographic assessment instrument. (c) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
