使用标准化程序和材料的游戏任务是评估育儿技能，儿童行为以及父母和儿童互动方式的实用方法。我们描述了一个系统的过程，开发亲子游戏任务（PCPT），以评估母子互动的随机对照试验的视频为基础的育儿计划。参与者是307位母亲和他们3到6岁的孩子，他们提出了反对和破坏性行为的挑战。PCPT的有效性通过测试（a）任务引发特定父母和孩子感兴趣的行为的程度，（B）个体行为在游戏任务中的一致性，以及（c）PCPT观察到的儿童行为和母亲报告的儿童行为的并发关联来研究。不同的任务引发了他们设计的母亲和孩子的行为。个别母亲和儿童的任务之间的行为一致性是公平到良好的，除了2个任务特定的行为。在教学任务中母亲的指导（提供指导以培养技能）和在问卷任务中母亲忙碌时儿童的打断具有高度的任务特异性。适度的协会之间观察到的儿童的不遵守和不适当的行为和母亲报告的行为问题和对立的行为。临床和研究评估的影响进行了讨论。
Play tasks that use standardized procedures and materials are a practical way to assess parenting skills, child behaviors, and the ways in which parents and children interact. We describe a systematic process for developing the parent–child play task (PCPT) to assess mother–child interactions for a randomized controlled trial of a video-based parenting program. Participants were 307 mothers and their 3-to 6-year-old children who presented oppositional and disruptive behavior challenges. The validity of the PCPT was investigated by testing (a) the extent to which the tasks elicited the specific parent and child behaviors of interest,(b) the consistency of individuals’ behavior across the play tasks, and (c) the concurrent associations of the PCPT-observed child behaviors and mother reports of child behavior. The different tasks elicited the mother and child behaviors that they were designed to elicit. Behavior consistency across tasks for individual mothers and children was fair to good, with the exception of 2 task-specific behaviors. Mother’s guidance (provision of instructions to foster a skill) during the teaching task and children’s interruptions while mother was busy during the questionnaire task were highly task specific. Modest associations were found between observed children’s noncompliance and inappropriate behaviors and mother-reported conduct problems and oppositional behaviors. Implications for clinical and research assessments are discussed.
