摘要

摘要背景为了评估社交技能,专业人士需要一种基于科学、适合年龄、对偏离正常预期的情况敏感的工具。儿童情绪、关系和社会化评估问卷(PEERS-Q)是为了解决这一差距而制定的。本研究旨在详细介绍PEERS-Q的心理测量特性。方法对571名5~15岁儿童家长进行社会能力问卷调查(PEERS-Q、社会技能改进系统(SSIS)、优势与困难问卷(SDQ))。儿童完成了一项估计智商的测量。验证性因素分析探讨了PEERS-Q的可靠性和有效性。推导了年龄和性别调整后的T型评分,并探讨了这些评分与验证工具之间的关系。结果得到6个分量表;关系、参与、社会规则、社会沟通、社会认知和行为。PEERS-Q具有良好到非常好的内部一致性(α=0.89,分量表0.78-0.95);SSIS和SDQ具有良好的收敛有效性(r=0.76,分量表0.47至0.59),矩阵推理具有良好的判别有效性(r=-0.11,分量表-0.08至-0.11)。结论PEERS-Q是衡量儿童/青少年社会能力领域的有用工具。PEERS-Q可以提高临床医生识别年轻人社会困难的能力,从而指导干预。需要对临床人群进行进一步的研究来确定这些益处。关键点关于这个主题的已知情况:(1)目前缺乏针对儿童和青少年的强大且适合发展的社会技能评估工具。(2) 现有的衡量标准要么没有评估社会功能的复杂性,要么被纳入更广泛的结果衡量标准的较小子尺度。(3) 如果没有针对社会技能特定子域的有效和可靠的措施,干预措施就无法针对特定的社会技能优势和劣势。本主题补充道:(1)PEERS-Q是一种基于发展神经科学的测量儿童社交技能的新工具。(2) PEERS-Q是一种有效可靠的测量方法。(3) PEERS-Q可以提高临床医生识别年轻人社会困难和调整所需干预类型的能力。

The Paediatric Evaluation of Emotions, Relationships, and Socialisation Questionnaire (PEERS-Q): development and validation of a parent-report questionnaire of social skills for children
ABSTRACT Background To assess social skills, professionals require a tool that is grounded in science, age-appropriate and sensitive to deviations from normal expectations. The Paediatric Evaluation of Emotions, Relationships and Socialisation Questionnaire (PEERS-Q) was developed to address this gap. This study aimed to detail the psychometric properties of PEERS-Q. Method 571 parents of children aged 5-15 years completed questionnaires about their child’s social competence (PEERS-Q, Social Skills Improvement System (SSIS), Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ)). Children completed a measure of estimated IQ. Confirmatory factor analysis explored reliability and validity of PEERS-Q. Age- and sex-adjusted T-scores were derived and relationships between these and validation instruments were explored. Results Six subscales were derived; Relationships, Participation, Social Rules, Social Communication, Social Cognition and Behaviour. PEERS-Q has good to very good internal consistency (α = 0.89, subscales 0.78-0.95); good convergent validity with the SSIS and the SDQ (r = 0.76, subscales 0.47 to 0.59), and good discriminant validity using Matrix Reasoning (r = – 0.11, subscales – 0.08 to – 0.11). Conclusions PEERS-Q is a useful tool for measuring domains of social competence in children/adolescents. PEERS-Q may improve a clinician’s ability to identify a young person’s social difficulties and hence guide intervention. Further research in clinical populations is required to determine these benefits. KEY POINTS What is already known about this topic: (1) There is currently a lack of robust and developmentally appropriate social skills assessment tools for children and adolescents. (2) Exisiting measures either fail to assess the complexity of social function, or are included as smaller sub-scales of broader outcome measures. (3) Without valid and reliable measures that target the specific subdomains of social skills, interventions cannot be targeted to specific social skills strengths and weaknesses. What this topic adds: (1) The PEERS-Q is a new tool for measuring social skills in children, grounded in developmental neuroscience. (2) PEERS-Q is a valid and reliable measure. (3) PEERS-Q may improve a clinician’s ability to identify a young person’s social difficulties and tailor the type of intervention required.

It covers the entire spectrum of psychological research and receives articles on all topics within the broad scope of the discipline. The journal publishes high quality peer-reviewed articles with reviewers and associate editors providing detailed assistance to authors to reach publication. The journal publishes reports of experimental and survey studies, including reports of qualitative investigations, on pure and applied topics in the field of psychology. Articles on clinical psychology or on the professional concerns of applied psychology should be submitted to our sister journals, Australian Psychologist or Clinical Psychologist. The journal publishes occasional reviews of specific topics, theoretical pieces and commentaries on methodological issues. There are also solicited book reviews and comments Annual special issues devoted to a single topic, and guest edited by a specialist editor, are published. The journal regards itself as international in vision and will accept submissions from psychologists in all countries.
