为了克服研究幼儿听觉发育的方法学限制，我们最近开发了一种基于条件反射的程序，该程序使用条件反射，基于游戏的运动反应（参见Bonino & Leibold，2017）。本文的目的是检查评价者间的可靠性的method.Methodvideo记录的测试会议的2- 4岁的儿童（n= 17）进行了检查。1000 Hz颤音音调的检测是在两种条件下使用基于播放观察器的双间隔（PlayO 2 I）方法测量的：固定强度水平（30 dB SPL）或可变强度水平信号（0-30 dB SPL）。所有测试阶段由三名观察员独立评分（一名实时，两名离线）。用Fleiss' kappa统计评价观察者一致性。为了确定如果汇总数据是类似的每个测试会话的观察员，正确的试验（固定水平条件）或阈值（可变水平条件）的比例进行了calculated.ResultsThe观察员共识的强度被归类为“几乎完美”和“实质性”的固定水平和可变水平的条件，分别。对变量水平数据的后续分析表明，观察者共识的差异是基于信号水平、儿童提供的反应行为类型和实时观察者的置信水平。结果汇总数据是相似的，在每个测试会话的三个观察员：正确的试验或threshold.ConclusionsResults的比例估计没有显着差异，从这项研究证实了强大的评价者之间的可靠性的方法。PlayO 2 I方法是测量幼儿检测和辨别能力的有力工具。补充材料https：doi.org/10.23641/asha.12978197
PurposeTo overcome methodology limitations for studying auditory development in young children, we have recently developed an observer-based procedure that uses a conditioned, play-based, motor response (see Bonino & Leibold, 2017). The purpose of this article was to examine interrater reliability for the method.MethodVideo recordings of test sessions of 2- to 4-year-old children (n= 17) were examined. Detection of a 1000-Hz warble tone was measured with the Play Observer-Based, Two-Interval (PlayO2I) method in each of two conditions: for a fixed intensity level (30 dB SPL) or for a variable intensity level signal (0–30 dB SPL). All test sessions were scored independently by three observers (one real-time, two offline). Observer consensus was evaluated with Fleiss' kappa statistic. To determine if summary data were similar across the observers of each test session, the proportion of correct trials (fixed-level condition) or threshold (variable-level condition) were computed.ResultsThe strength of observer consensus was classified as “almost perfect” and “substantial” for the fixed-level and variable-level conditions, respectively. Follow-up analysis of the variable-level data indicated that differences in observer consensus were seen based on the signal level, the type of response behavior provided by the child, and the confidence level of the real-time observer. Resulting summary data were similar across the three observers of each test session: no significant differences for estimates of the proportion of correct trials or threshold.ConclusionsResults from this study confirm strong interrater reliability for the method. The PlayO2I method is a powerful tool for measuring detection and discrimination abilities in young children.Supplemental Materialhttps://doi.org/10.23641/asha.12978197
