Psychometric evaluation of the Children’s Impact of Traumatic Events Scale-Revised

Objective: To measure the internal consistency and construct validity of the Children’s Impact of Traumatic Events Scale-Revised (CITES-R). Method: 158 sexually abused children, ages 7–12, and a nonabusive parent or primary caretaker completed a series of measures, including the CITES-R. A subsample...

description Objective: To measure the internal consistency and construct validity of the Children’s Impact of Traumatic Events Scale-Revised (CITES-R). Method: 158 sexually abused children, ages 7–12, and a nonabusive parent or primary caretaker completed a series of measures, including the CITES-R. A subsample of 17 repeated the assessment after 1 to 2 months with intervening treatment. Results: Internal consistency for the CITES-R scales averaged .69. Associations with other measures were in predicted directions, although most were modest in size. Parent-report measures were virtually unrelated to any child-report measure, including the CITES-R. Change over time during treatment was noted on most symptom scales. Conclusions: The psychometric adequacy of the CITES-R was moderately supported. The main symptom scales of the instrument performed well. The performance of other scales was more variable. Objetivo: Medir la consistencia interna y construir la validez de la Escala para Niños del Impacto de Eventos Traumáticos Revisada (Children’s Impact of Traumatic Events Scale-Revised CITES-R). Método: 158 niños abusados sexualmente, de edad 7 a 12 años, y un padre/madre no abusivo o el cuidador primario completaron una serie de medidas, incluyendo el CITES-R. Una sub-muestra de 17 repitieron la evaluación después de 1 a 2 meses de transcurrido el tratamiento. Resultados: La consistencia interna de las escalas CITES-R promediaron .69. Las asociaciones con otras medidas fueron en las direcciones predichas, a pesar de que la mayorı́a fueron modestas en tamaño. Las medidas del reporte parental no estuvieron virtualmente relacionadas con ninguna de las medidas del reporte del niño, incluyendo las CITES-R. Se observó cambio durante el tratamiento en casi todas las escalas de sı́ntomas. Conclusiones: La adecuación psicométrica de la CITES-R fue modestamente apoyada. Las principales escalas del instrumento se comportaron bien. Hubo mayor variación en el comportamiento de las otras escalas.
