需要系统的过程来开发跨文化环境中破坏性行为障碍（DBD）的有效测量工具。我们在尼泊尔采用了一个四步过程来识别和选择项目的文化有效的评估工具：1）我们从验证的量表和当地自由列表访谈中提取项目。2)家长，教师和同龄人（n=30）的行为问题的相关性和重要性的感知。3)在尼泊尔对儿童（n=60）进行了高评价项目的试点。4)我们评估了最终量表的内部一致性。我们从11个量表中确定了49个症状，从自由列表访谈中确定了39个行为问题（n=72）。在试点测试中，在删除了相关性和严重性评分低、项目测试相关性差、频率低和/或可接受性差的项目后，破坏性行为国际量表-尼泊尔语版（DBIS-N）仍保留了16个项目。最终量表具有良好的内部一致性（α=0.86）。一个4步系统的方法，规模发展，包括当地的参与产生了一个内部一致的规模，包括文化相关的行为问题。
Systematic processes are needed to develop valid measurement instruments for disruptive behavior disorders (DBDs) in cross-cultural settings. We employed a four-step process in Nepal to identify and select items for a culturally valid assessment instrument: 1) We extracted items from validated scales and local free-list interviews. 2) Parents, teachers, and peers (n=30) rated the perceived relevance and importance of behavior problems. 3) Highly rated items were piloted with children (n=60) in Nepal. 4) We evaluated internal consistency of the final scale. We identified 49 symptoms from 11 scales, and 39 behavior problems from free-list interviews (n=72). After dropping items for low ratings of relevance and severity and for poor item-test correlation, low frequency, and/or poor acceptability in pilot testing, 16 items remained for the Disruptive Behavior International Scale—Nepali version (DBIS-N). The final scale had good internal consistency (α=0.86). A 4-step systematic approach to scale development including local participation yielded an internally consistent scale that included culturally relevant behavior problems.
