长处和困难问卷(SDQ)已被广泛用于测量儿童和青少年中常见的精神病理学形式。然而，它的心理测量学特性因国家而异，几个有争议的问题值得进一步调查。本研究旨在评估西班牙文版SDQ是否是一种可靠和有效的工具，用于评估父母、教师和青少年对6,775名5-17岁学生的情绪和行为问题的评估。我们检查了问卷的内部一致性，它的因素结构，以及儿童性别和年龄的测量不变性。用儿童行为量表(CBCL)、教师报告表(TRF)和青少年自我报告(YSR)进行效度检验，并测量SDQ对患有特定精神障碍的儿童的识别能力。最后，我们首次提供了按性别和每个信息提供人的西班牙5至10岁和11至17岁儿童的规范数据。我们的结果显示了所有SDQ分量表的可接受的信度估计。验证性因素分析支持原始的五因素模型，并发现完全测量不变性。此外，SDQ得分与相当的CBCL/TRF/YSR量表上的得分显示出中等到强烈的相关性，并且在区分有和没有临床诊断的个体方面是有效的。
The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) has been extensively used to measure common forms of psychopathology among children and adolescents. However, its psychometric properties vary across countries and several controversial issues warrant further investigation. This study aimed to evaluate whether the Spanish version of the SDQ is a reliable and valid tool for assessing emotional and behavioral problems in a sample of 6,775 students aged 5 to 17 years, as rated by parents, teachers, and youth. We examined the internal consistency of the questionnaire, its factor structure, and measurement invariance across child's gender and age. Criterion validity was tested against the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), Teacher's Report Form (TRF), and Youth Self-Report (YSR), and we measured the ability of the SDQ to identify children with specific psychiatric disorders. Finally, we provide, for the first time, Spanish normative data for children aged 5 to 10 and 11 to 17 years, according to gender and each informant. Our results revealed acceptable reliability estimates for all SDQ subscales. Confirmatory factor analysis supported the original five-factor model and full measurement invariance was found. Furthermore, SDQ scores showed a moderate to strong correlation with those on the equivalent CBCL/TRF/YSR scales, and were effective in discriminating individuals with and without clinical diagnoses.
