摘要

使用筛查工具对全校范围内的内化症状进行筛查,是早期识别和预防青少年出现更严重、更有害的情绪和行为健康问题的重要策略。然而,筛查工具所确定的临界分值可能并不适合所有人群。本研究以 237 名新加坡中学生为样本,验证了适合本地使用的青少年内化问题筛查工具(YIPS)。确认性因素分析的结果支持该结构的单因素解决方案。根据接受者操作特征(ROC)分析,27 分的临界值显示了良好的分类准确性。相关分析和路径分析为使用 YIPS 表示高危状态提供了收敛性和预测性证据。除了人际关系的性质和不足感之外,YIPS 与女生的学校幸福感有着独特的联系。总体而言,尽管本研究样本采用了不同的截止分值,但 YIPS 仍显示出相当的灵敏度和特异性。会议讨论了在多层支持系统中使用 YIPS 作为筛查工具的问题以及未来的发展方向。

Validation of the Youth Internalizing Problem Screener in Singapore
The use of a screening tool for school-wide screening of internalizing symptoms is an important strategy for early identification and prevention of more serious and impairing emotional and behavioral health problems in adolescents. However, threshold cut-off scores determined for screening tools may not be suitable for all populations. Using a sample of 237 Singaporean secondary school students, this study validated the Youth Internalizing Problems Screener (YIPS) for local use. Results of confirmatory factor analyses supported a one-factor solution for the construct. A threshold cut-off score of 27 was found to show good classification accuracy based on receiver operating characteristics (ROC) analyses. Correlational and path analyses provided evidence of convergent and predictive validity for using YIPS to indicate at-risk status. The YIPS status was uniquely associated with girls’ sense of school well-being over and above the nature of their interpersonal relationships and their sense of inadequacy. Overall, YIPS demonstrated comparable sensitivity and specificity rates even though a different cut-off score was used for this study sample. The use of YIPS as a screening tool in a multitier system of support and directions for future development were discussed.
