Abstract

Background: The Developmental Behaviour Checklist (DBC) is an established, internationally used questionnaire for assessing behavioural and emotional problems among young people with developmental or intellectual disabilities (ID). The present study aims to evaluate the psychometric properties of its German teacher version (DBC-T).

Method: The German DBC-T was administered to 397 school staff members who reported twice on 1177 children and adolescents with ID over a period of 7-9 months. Data were analysed within an exploratory structural equation modelling framework.

Results: Our results supported the five-factor structure of the DBC-T and found good reliability for all scales. Analyses on the relationship of DBC-T scores with students' age, gender, and adaptive behaviour provided further evidence for the validity of the DBC-T.

Conclusions: Our study endorses the notion that the German DBC-T is an important instrument both for research and practice. Limitations and further directions are discussed.

德国教师版发展行为检查表对智障儿童和青少年的评价

发展行为检查表(DBC)是一份国际通用的调查问卷，用于评估有发育或智力障碍(ID)的青少年的行为和情绪问题。本研究旨在评估其德语教师版(DBC-T)的心理测量特性。方法采用德国DBC-T量表对397名学校工作人员进行问卷调查，并对1177名儿童和青少年进行了7 ~ 9个月的两次问卷调查。数据在探索性结构方程建模框架内进行分析。结果本研究结果支持bc - t的五因子结构，在各量表上具有良好的信度。通过分析bc - t得分与学生年龄、性别、适应行为的关系，进一步证明了bc - t的有效性。结论我们的研究支持了德国DBC-T在研究和实践中都是一个重要的工具的观点。讨论了局限性和进一步的发展方向。
