魏氏兒童智力測驗第四版簡式版本於低智能兒童之效度分析

Validity of the WISC-IV Short Form in Children With Low Intellegence

摘要


目的:檢驗魏氏兒童智力測驗第四版(Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, fourth edition, WISC-IV)四因子簡式版本,應用於智能低下或臨界智能學齡兒童的效度。方法:167位6-12歲兒童,接受WISC-IV完整版智力測驗後,分為智能低下組(全量表實際智商 [full scale intelligence quotient, FSIQ] < 69, n = 35)和臨界智能組(FSIQ = 70-84, n = 132)。再以WISC-IV中的「類同─矩陣推理─數字序列─符號尋找」和「類同─矩陣推理─記憶廣度─符號尋找」形成兩種簡式版本,以線性轉換法與比例估計法推估全智商,比較完整版實際智商與簡短版估計智商之間的相關係數和平均數F檢定。結果:有69%智能低下組兒童及33%臨界智能組兒童無法完成數字序列分測驗,顯示「類同─矩陣推理─數字序列─符號尋找」不適用於智力功能較弱兒童。而「類同─矩陣推理─記憶廣度─符號尋找」簡短版,在智能低下組兒童,不論是線性估計法或比例推估法之估計智商,與實際智商的相關係數都在.82以上,且估計智商與實際智商之間的平均數無顯著差異,顯示「類同─矩陣推理─記憶廣度─符號尋找」簡短版對智能低下兒童是相對較適合的選擇。結論:智能低下組學齡兒童可採用「類同─矩陣推理─記憶廣度─符號尋找」簡短版估計全量表智商;但對臨界智能組兒童,則建議採用WISC-IV完整版智力測驗評估其智力功能。

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the validity of Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, fourth edition (WISC-IV) tetrad short-forms in children with intellectual disability or borderline intellectual functioning. Methods: One hundred and sixty-seven children aged 6 to 12 years old were administered the full-scale WISC-IV. They were divided into low intelligence group (full scale intelligence quotient [FSIQ] < 69, n = 35) and borderline intelligence group (FSIQ = 70-84, n = 132). The WISC-IV scaled scores on the following subtests were used to derive two tetrad short-forms scores. One short-form included Similarities, Matrix Reasoning, Letter Number Sequencing, and Symbol Search. Another short-form included Similarities, Matrix Reasoning, Digit Span, and Symbol Search. The short-form FSIQs were estimated by prorated method and linear transformation. The correlations and F-tests between actual and estimated FSIQ were calculated for validity analysis. Results: There were 69% children with low intelligence and 33% children with borderline IQ cannot finish the Letter Number Sequencing subtest. The results indicated that the Similarities-Matrix Reasoning-Letter Number Sequencing-Symbol Search short form was not applicable for children with low to borderline intellectual function. However, the Similarities-Matrix Reasoning-Digit Span-Symbol Search short form indicated well correlations between estimated FSIQ calculated by prorated method or linear transformation and the actual FSIQ in children with intellectual disability (r > .82). Moreover, there were no significant differences between estimated FSIQs and actual FSIQs. Thus, the Similarities-Matrix Reasoning-Digit Span-Symbol Search short form was considered as an optimal option for children with intellectual disability. Conclusion: The Similarities-Matrix Reasoning-Digit Span-Symbol Search short form was applicable to estimate FSIQ in children with low intelligence. However, for children with borderline intelligence, WISC-IV full scales were suggested to use to evaluate their intellectual function.
