昼夜节律相位偏好（“计时型”）的个体差异与睡眠时间表变异性、心理社会功能和生物钟的特定特性有关。尽管人们对青少年和成人生物钟的发育、分布和变异性了解很多，但由于缺乏适当、可靠和有效的措施，对青春期前儿童的评估受到阻碍。本研究详细描述了儿童计时类型问卷 (CCTQ) 对儿童计时类型的评估。 CCTQ 是一份家长报告、包含 27 项混合格式的调查问卷，可对 4 至 11 岁儿童的睡眠时间类型进行多种测量：自由日的睡眠中点 (MSF)、晨间/晚上量表 (M/E) 评分和五点睡眠时间类型 (CT) 评分。该研究使用体动记录仪提供了有效性数据，以及所有三种睡眠类型测量和睡眠/觉醒参数的重测可靠性数据。总体而言，研究结果表明，这三种测量之间具有中等到强的一致性，时间型测量与体动记录仪评估的睡眠/觉醒参数之间有充分的关联，并且具有出色的时间稳定性（可靠性）。 （作者通讯：oskar.jenni@kispi.uzh.ch）
Individual differences in circadian phase preference (“chronotype”) are linked to sleep schedule variability, psychosocial functioning, and specific properties of the circadian clock. While much is known about the development, distribution, and variability of chronotype in adolescents and adults, assessment in prepubertal children has been hindered by a lack of appropriate, reliable, and valid measures. This study presents a detailed description of the assessment of children’s chronotype by the Children’s ChronoType Questionnaire (CCTQ). The CCTQ is a parent-report, 27-item mixed-format questionnaire resulting in multiple measures of chronotype in 4- to 11-yr-old children: the midsleep point on free days (MSF), a morningness/eveningness scale (M/E) score, and a five-point chronotype (CT) score. The study provides validity data using actigraphy as well as test-retest reliability data for all three chronotype measures and sleep/wake parameters. Overall, the findings indicate moderate to strong agreement between the three measures, adequate associations between chronotype measures and sleep/wake parameters assessed by actigraphy, and excellent temporal stability (reliability).
