Abstract
objective
Provided the first national standards for reporting by caregivers for the Disruptive Behavior Disorders Rating Scale (DBDRS) and an updated assessment of their factor structure and measurement invariance across child sex, informant sex, and child age.
methods
Caregivers of children aged 5-12 (N= 962) based in the United States completed the four DBDRS subscales. Using severity scoring and dichotomous scoring procedures, confirmatory factor analyzes supported a four-factor model of inattentive and hyperactive/impulsive symptoms, oppositional defiant symptoms, and behavioral disorder symptoms.
Results
Measurement invariance was supported, indicating that the DBDRS works similarly across demographics. Boys have been reported to have more severe symptoms than girls (Cohen'sD= 0.33 [inattention], 0.30 [hyperactivity/impulsiveness], 0.18 [oppositional defiant disorder], 0.14 [conduct disorder]), female caregivers rated ADHD symptoms as more severe than male caregivers (Ds = 0.15 and 0.19 for inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity, respectively), and older children have been reported to experience more inattention than younger children (D= 0.18). Overall, the group differences were modest.
Diploma
This psychometric study supports continued use of the DBDRS among school-age adolescents and will improve the clinical and research utility of the intervention by providing the first standards for nurse reporting.
