摘要

本研究旨在确定在一个混合临床样本(n = 393;62%为男性,62%为白人,中位年龄为 11 岁)中,各种人口统计学变量对儿科成绩效度测试--记忆效度档案(MVP)--通过/未通过的影响。与通过 MVP 测试的儿童(321 人,占 82%)相比,未通过 MVP 测试的儿童(72 人,占 18%)年龄更小,且更有可能有特殊教育史。在性别、种族、父母教育程度、多动症或其他精神疾病治疗史等其他变量方面,各组间差异无统计学意义。可能的假阳性结果在 10 岁以下儿童和根据身体/其他健康缺陷或言语和语言障碍资格接受特殊教育服务的儿童中相对最为常见。我们的结论是,在所有年龄段和诊断类别的 MVP 中采用统一的合格/不合格分界线是不明智的。相反,我们建议为该测试制定各种经过调整的临界值,使其在不同年龄段以及不同的医疗或发育状况下都能保持 90% 的特异性。

Pass/failure on the memory validity profile: one size does not fit all.

This study sought to determine the influence of various demographic variables on pass/failure on a pediatric performance validity test, the Memory Validity Profile (MVP) in a mixed clinical sample (n = 393; 62% male, 62% White, median age 11 years). Children who failed the MVP (n = 72, 18%) according to a uniform cutoff of ≤30/32 correct were younger and were more likely to have a special education history than those who passed it (n = 321, 82%). There were no statistically significant group differences on other variables such as sex, race, parental education, history of treatment for ADHD or other psychiatric disorder. Possible false positive findings were relatively most common in children under the age of 10 years and in children who received special education services under the Physical/Other Health Impairment or Speech & Language Impairment qualifications. We conclude that a uniform cutoff for pass/failure on the MVP across any and all ages and diagnostic categories is ill-advised. Instead, we recommend the development of various adjusted cutoffs for this test that maintain 90% specificity at both ends of the age spectrum as well as with different medical or developmental conditions.

期刊介绍: The purposes of Child Neuropsychology are to: publish research on the neuropsychological effects of disorders which affect brain functioning in children and adolescents, publish research on the neuropsychological dimensions of development in childhood and adolescence and promote the integration of theory, method and research findings in child/developmental neuropsychology. The primary emphasis of Child Neuropsychology is to publish original empirical research. Theoretical and methodological papers and theoretically relevant case studies are welcome. Critical reviews of topics pertinent to child/developmental neuropsychology are encouraged. Emphases of interest include the following: information processing mechanisms; the impact of injury or disease on neuropsychological functioning; behavioral cognitive and pharmacological approaches to treatment/intervention; psychosocial correlates of neuropsychological dysfunction; definitive normative, reliability, and validity studies of psychometric and other procedures used in the neuropsychological assessment of children and adolescents. Articles on both normal and dysfunctional development that are relevant to the aforementioned dimensions are welcome. Multiple approaches (e.g., basic, applied, clinical) and multiple methodologies (e.g., cross-sectional, longitudinal, experimental, multivariate, correlational) are appropriate. Books, media, and software reviews will be published.
