Area of Science:

  • Developmental Psychology
  • Psychometrics
  • Clinical Psychology

Background:

  • Accurate adaptive behavior measurement is crucial for clinical and research settings.
  • Existing measures are suitable for adults or clinical use, but a brief, efficient tool for research with children and youth is needed.
  • The GO4KIDDS Brief Adaptive Behaviour Scale was developed to address this gap.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present the preliminary psychometric properties of the GO4KIDDS Brief Adaptive Behaviour Scale.
  • To evaluate the reliability and validity of the new scale for research purposes.

Main Methods:

  • A large online survey (n=432) of parents of youth (aged 3-20) with intellectual disability and/or Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) was conducted.
  • Participants completed the GO4KIDDS scale.
  • A subsample (n=204) also completed the Scales of Independent Behavior-Revised Short Form for validation.

Main Results:

  • The GO4KIDDS Brief Adaptive Behaviour Scale demonstrated good internal consistency.
  • The scale showed strong correlations with the Scales of Independent Behavior-Revised Short Form, supporting its reliability and validity.

Conclusions:

  • The GO4KIDDS Brief Adaptive Behaviour Scale is not recommended for clinical use.
  • The scale appears to be a useful tool for survey research involving parents of children and youth with developmental disabilities.
