Abstract

The General Social Outcome Measure (GSOM) is a performance-based measurement tool designed to assess the change in social skills performance during and after intervention for students with social skills deficits. In the current study, the psychometric properties of the GSOM, including the total score and social communication domains, were examined in adolescents with social skill deficits. Internal consistency alphas were conducted, which showed promising results. Correlational analyses were conducted using the GSOM and the Children’s Communication Checklist-2 (CCC-2), School Social Behavior Scales (SSBS), and the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule–Second Edition (ADOS-2). A small but significant correlation was documented between the GSOM and the ADOS-2, with higher GSOM total scores (higher social skills) associated with lower ADOS-2 scores. Additional analyses revealed that individuals with different levels of symptomology according to the ADOS-2 (low, moderate, or high) differed significantly in the GSOM total score. The implications of these findings are discussed with respect to the utility of the GSOM as a progress-monitoring tool for targeted populations with social skill impairments.

对一般社会成果衡量标准的探索

一般社交成果测量法（GSOM）是一种基于表现的测量工具，旨在评估社交技能有缺陷的学生在干预期间和干预后社交技能表现的变化。在本研究中，研究人员对社交能力有缺陷的青少年进行了社交能力测评，包括总分和社交沟通领域。研究结果显示了良好的内部一致性。研究人员使用通用社会沟通表和儿童沟通核对表-2（CCC-2）、学校社会行为量表（SSBS）以及自闭症诊断观察表-第二版（ADOS-2）进行了相关分析。GSOM和ADOS-2之间存在微小但重要的相关性，GSOM总分越高（社交能力越强），ADOS-2得分越低。其他分析表明，根据 ADOS-2（低度、中度或高度），不同症状程度的个体在 GSOM 总分上存在显著差异。这些研究结果的意义在于，GSOM 可作为一种进展监测工具，用于有社交技能障碍的目标人群。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
