Abstract

Introduction: Since there are not enough scales to evaluate the cognitive performance of adolescents in Türkiye, the aim of this study is to conduct a reliability and validity study of the Test of Nonverbal Intelligence-3 (TONI-3) for individuals aged between 14 and 17.

Methods: A total of 566 children between the ages of 14-17 were included in the study. A form of TONI-3 test was administered to all participants. Test-retest and parallel form application were made for reliability analyses, and Raven Standard Progressive Matrices Test (RSPM) and Naglieri Nonverbal Ability Test (NNAT-I) tests were applied for validity analyses.

Results: It has been found that the TONI-3 Test has a high reliability with an average reliability coefficient of 0.92. It was determined that there was a high, positive and significant relationship between Form A and Form B of the TONI-3 Test (r=0.76, p<0.01). The correlation coefficient between the scores was found to be 0.83 between the first application of the TONI-3 test and the test repeated after 4 weeks. A high, positive and significant correlation was found between TONI-3 Test, RSPM Test and NNAT-I (r=0.69, p<0.01; r=0.81, p<0.01).

Conclusion: This study revealed evidence of the reliability and validity of the TONI-3 test between the ages of 14-17. This is the first study of the TONI-3 test in this age group. It is thought that clinicians can practically evaluate cognitive abilities in children who are clinically referred to or determined to have behavior disorders at school through this test.

4-17岁儿童TONI-3测验的效度与信度研究

摘要：由于 rkiye青少年认知能力的评估量表不够，本研究的目的是对14 - 17岁青少年的非语言智力测验-3 （TONI-3）进行信度和效度研究。方法：选取14 ~ 17岁儿童566例。对所有参与者进行TONI-3测试。信度分析采用重测法和平行表格法，效度分析采用Raven标准递进矩阵测验（RSPM）和Naglieri非语言能力测验（NNAT-I）。结果：TONI-3测验具有较高的信度，平均信度系数为0.92。结果表明，TONI-3量表a、B表之间存在高度正相关（r=0.76, p）。结论：本研究为14-17岁青少年TONI-3量表的信度和效度提供了证据。这是TONI-3测试在这个年龄段的首次研究。据认为，临床医生可以实际评估儿童的认知能力，谁被临床提及或确定有行为障碍在学校通过这个测试。
