发展不变性对于从纵向数据中对儿童发展做出有效的推断很重要;然而，它很少被测试。我们评估了儿童心理健康最广泛使用的措施之一：父母报告的优势和困难问卷（SDQ）的发展和性别不变性。使用来自大不列颠及北爱尔兰联合王国在一项具有人口代表性的千禧年队列研究（N = 10，207;数据来自3岁、5岁、7岁、11岁、14岁和17岁）中，我们测试了情绪问题、行为问题、多动/注意力不集中、亲社会性和同伴问题的结构、度量、标量和残差不变性。我们发现，SDQ在男性和女性3岁时以及男性17岁时表现出不佳的拟合;然而，它拟合得相当好，并且其分数在5岁，7岁，11岁和14岁时在性别间的剩余水平上具有测量不变性。在此年龄范围内，评分也是纵向测量不变的，直到部分残留水平。结果表明，父母报告的SDQ可以用来估计发展轨迹的情绪问题，行为问题，多动/注意力不集中，亲社会，和同龄人的问题和他们的性别差异，在5至14岁的年龄范围内使用一个潜在的模型。然而，超出此范围的发育差异可能部分反映了测量差异。
Developmental invariance is important for making valid inferences about child development from longitudinal data; however, it is rarely tested. We evaluated developmental and gender invariance for one of the most widely used measures of child mental health: the parent-reported Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). Using data from the large U.K. population-representative Millennium Cohort Study (N = 10,207; with data at ages 3, 5, 7, 11, 14, and 17 years), we tested configural, metric, scalar, and residual invariance in emotional problems, conduct problems, hyperactivity/inattention, prosociality, and peer problems. We found that the SDQ showed poor fit at age 3 in both males and females and at age 17 in males; however, it fit reasonably well and its scores were measurement invariant up to the residual level across gender at ages 5, 7, 11, and 14 years. Scores were also longitudinally measurement invariant across this age range up to the partial residual level. Results suggest that the parent-reported SDQ can be used to estimate developmental trajectories of emotional problems, conduct problems, hyperactivity/inattention, prosociality, and peer problems and their gender differences across the age range 5 to 14 years using a latent model. Developmental differences outside of this range may; however, partly reflect measurement differences.
