Abstract

Background

Social validity in the field of applied behaviour analysis is the measurement of the social significance of goals, the social appropriateness of procedures, and the social importance of the effects of a treatment. There is a paucity of rigorous research on social validity measurement as it relates to feeding treatment.

Objective

To our knowledge, this is the first systematic review aiming to identify the gaps in and assess the current state of the science regarding comprehensive social validity measurement of paediatric feeding treatment.

Method

We conducted a systematic review following PRISMA guidelines using four ProQuest databases.

Results

The systematic review resulted in the identification of 26 eligible articles reporting findings related to social validity post-intensive treatment or describing new measurement systems that could be used to assess social validity more comprehensively. Collectively, caregivers rated behaviour-analytic treatments high in social validity and treatments were highly effective. Caregivers reported increased broader quality of life and lasting positive impacts, decreased stress, and lack of negative effects.

Conclusion

In the context of these results, we discuss behaviour-analytic feeding treatment within social validity’s comprehensive definition. We identify additional data-based research needs in this area and provide recommendations to spur new investigations. Social validity measurement requires refinement to further inform the standard of care. Paediatric feeding expertise and competency are crucial in navigating social validity considerations. Accurate dissemination is needed to increase earlier access to effective feeding treatment for families and specialised training for professionals to promote data-based and individualised decision-making in this vital area.

对儿科喂养障碍行为干预中社会有效性测量的系统回顾和全面讨论

背景应用行为分析领域的社会效度是对目标的社会意义、程序的社会适宜性以及治疗效果的社会重要性的测量。据我们所知，这是第一篇系统性综述，旨在确定儿科喂养治疗的全面社会效度测量方面存在的差距，并评估其科学现状。总的来说，护理人员对行为分析治疗的社会有效性评价较高，而且治疗非常有效。护理人员报告说，他们的生活质量得到了更广泛的提高，产生了持久的积极影响，减轻了压力，并且没有产生负面影响。结论根据这些结果，我们讨论了社会有效性综合定义中的行为分析喂养治疗。我们确定了该领域基于数据的其他研究需求，并提出了促进新研究的建议。社会效度测量需要进一步完善，以便为护理标准提供更多信息。儿科喂养方面的专业知识和能力对于把握社会有效性至关重要。需要进行准确的传播，以便让更多家庭更早地获得有效的喂养治疗，并对专业人员进行专门培训，以促进在这一重要领域做出基于数据的个性化决策。

期刊介绍： Child & Youth Care Forum is a peer-reviewed, multidisciplinary publication that welcomes submissions – original empirical research papers and theoretical reviews as well as invited commentaries – on children, youth, and families. Contributions to Child & Youth Care Forum are submitted by researchers, practitioners, and clinicians across the interrelated disciplines of child psychology, early childhood, education, medical anthropology, pediatrics, pediatric psychology, psychiatry, public policy, school/educational psychology, social work, and sociology as well as government agencies and corporate and nonprofit organizations that seek to advance current knowledge and practice. Child & Youth Care Forum publishes scientifically rigorous, empirical papers and theoretical reviews that have implications for child and adolescent mental health, psychosocial development, assessment, interventions, and services broadly defined. For example, papers may address issues of child and adolescent typical and/or atypical development through effective youth care assessment and intervention practices. In addition, papers may address strategies for helping youth overcome difficulties (e.g., mental health problems) or overcome adversity (e.g., traumatic stress, community violence) as well as all children actualize their potential (e.g., positive psychology goals). Assessment papers that advance knowledge as well as methodological papers with implications for child and youth research and care are also encouraged.
