Abstract

Abstract This study aimed to validate a French adaptation of the Griffith Empathy Measure (GEM-vf). Belgian mothers of 516 children from 3 to 12 years old completed the French versions of the GEM, the Empathy Questionnaire (EmQue-vf), the Theory of Mind Inventory-1 (ToMI-1-vf) and the Emotion Regulation Checklist (ERC-vf). The Theory of Mind Task Battery was administered to the children. A principal component analysis showed a two-factor structure in GEM-vf: affective and cognitive empathy. Internal consistency was good. The GEM-vf scores varied depending on age. Affective empathy was higher in girls. In terms of convergent validity, positive and significant correlations were obtained between total, affective and cognitive empathy scores in GEM-vf and scores in ToM skills and in emotion regulation. The three scores in GEM-vf were negatively and significantly correlated with emotion dysregulation. In a subsample of 299 children from 3 to 6 years old, positive and significant correlations were found between scores for total and affective empathy in GEM-vf and for attention to others’ feelings and prosocial actions in EmQue-vf. Cognitive empathy scores in GEM-vf were significantly related to those for prosocial actions in EmQue-vf. The GEM-vf presents good reliability and validity and could be useful to assess typically and atypically developing children in research and clinical practice.
Griffith共情测量法的改编与验证
摘要本研究旨在验证格里菲斯共情量表(GEM-vf)的法国改编版。516名3至12岁儿童的比利时母亲完成了法语版GEM、共情问卷(EmQue-vf)、心理理论量表-1 (ToMI-1-vf)和情绪调节检查表(ERC-vf)。对孩子们进行心理理论任务测试。主成分分析显示,情感共情和认知共情具有双因素结构。内部一致性很好。GEM-vf得分因年龄而异。情感同理心在女孩中更高。在收敛效度方面,GEM-vf总分、情感共情和认知共情得分与ToM技能和情绪调节得分呈显著正相关。GEM-vf三项得分与情绪失调呈显著负相关。在299名3 - 6岁儿童的子样本中,发现GEM-vf的总共情和情感共情得分与EmQue-vf的注意他人感受和亲社会行为得分之间存在显著的正相关。GEM-vf认知共情得分与EmQue-vf亲社会行为得分显著相关。GEM-vf具有良好的信度和效度,在研究和临床实践中可用于评估典型和非典型发育儿童。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Psychopathology and Behavioral Assessment publishes articles reporting research investigations and clinical case summaries which enhance understanding of psychopathology and mental disorders applicable to all ages, deviant or abnormal behaviors, including those related to medical conditions and trauma, and constructs descriptive of personality. The Journal fosters scientific inquiry into assessment, description, and classification of normal and abnormal behaviors, psychobiological factors predisposing, precipitating, and maintaining psychopathology, and theories of psychopathology and behavior change. Studies of normal personality constructs and positive person attributes, person and environment factors influencing behavioral outcomes, and interactive models of cognitive, emotional, and behavior resource factors as impacting normal and abnormal behaviors are encouraged. Within Journal purview are articles focusing on therapeutic interventions, technical notes on instrumentation and assessment methodology, and reviews of recently-published books.
