However, the scale length and the appropriateness of some of the items on the scale may reduce the usefulness of the CTRS-R for use with preschoolers. In this study, a Graded Response Model analysis based on Item Response Theory was applied to the CTRS-R data from 669 preschool children. Children in this data sample ranged in age from 25 to 74 months, and 44.4% were identified as African American, 45.4% Caucasian, 10.2% other. The sample was 53.7% boys and 46.3% girls. A revised version of the scale was developed specifically for use with preschool children. Five items each for the Inattention, Hyperactivity/Impulsivity, and Opposition scales were included in the revised scale. The revised scales significantly reduce the time needed for teachers to complete the measures while retaining the scales' ability to discriminate children with different levels of behavioral problems.

The latent structure of child depression: a taxometric analysis / J. Anthony RICHEY in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 50-9 (September 2009)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 50-9 (September 2009) . - p.1147-1155 Titre : The latent structure of child depression: a taxometric analysis Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : J. Anthony RICHEY, Auteur ; Christopher J. LONIGAN, Auteur ; Norman B. SCHMIDT, Auteur ; Beth M. PHILLIPS, Auteur ; Salvatore J. CATANZARO, Auteur ; Jeff LAURENT, Auteur ; Rebecca R. GERHARDSTEIN, Auteur ; Roman KOTOV, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.1147-1155 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Depression taxometrics CDI Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: The current study examined the categorical versus continuous nature of child and adolescent depression among three samples of children and adolescents ranging from 5 to 19 years. Methods: Depression was measured using the Children's Depression Inventory (CDI). Indicators derived from the CDI were based on factor analytic research on the CDI and included indices of: 1) social withdrawal, 2) anhedonia, 3) incompetence/maladjustment and 4) negative self-esteem. Results: Taxometric procedures provided convergent support for the existence of a latent taxon across three independent samples. Internal and external consistency tests as well as Monte Carlo simulations supported the validity of the results. Conclusions: Multiple nonredundant procedures and samples were all consistently indicative of taxonicity in child depression.
