Popis: | Objective: To evaluate the psychometric properties of the Psychosocial Assessment Tool–Craniofacial Version (PAT-CV), a screening instrument for psychosocial risk in families of children with craniofacial conditions, and to examine risk classification of patients in a craniofacial population. Design: Prospective, cross-sectional, single-center study. Setting: Interdisciplinary cleft lip and palate/craniofacial center at a US children’s hospital. Participants: Parents/caregivers (n = 242) of 217 children ages 1 month to 17 years being treated for a congenital syndromic or nonsyndromic craniofacial condition completed the PAT-CV and validating measures from July 2015 to July 2016. The PAT-CV was completed by 121 caregivers a second time to assess test-retest reliability. Main Outcome Measures: PAT-CV, Child Behavior Checklist, Adult Self-Report, Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory, Craniofacial Experiences Questionnaire, and Family Environment Scale. Results: Construct validity of the PAT-CV was supported by significant correlations ( P < .001) between PAT-CV total and subscale scores and the validated measures. PAT-CV total scores categorized 59.9% of families within the universal risk group, 32.3% within the targeted risk group, and 7.8% within the clinical range. Good criterion validity was indicated by significantly higher scores ( P < .0001) obtained on the validated measures for those in the targeted and clinical risk groups. Internal consistency (Cronbach’s α = 0.86) and test-retest reliability for the PAT-CV total score ( r = 0.77, P < .0001) were acceptable. Conclusions: The PAT-CV appears to be a reliable and valid screening instrument for psychosocial risk. Accurate identification of risk and implementation of appropriate interventions may contribute to improvements in medical and psychosocial outcomes. |
