碩士 === 國立中正大學 === 臨床心理學研究所 === 101 === Purpose: The purposes of this study were to translate a behavioral observation coding system into Chinese to assess the quality of parent-child interactions (i.e., Dyadic Parent-Child Interaction Coding System – Third Edition, DPICS-III), and to examine its psychometric properties in a Taiwanese sample.
Methods: Sixty-six clinical- referred caregiver-child dyads participated in this study because children displayed emotional and behavioral problems, and/or their caregivers had difficulty in parenting. The data first were divided into two groups that with and without clinically elevated disruptive behavior symptoms which were used to compare to the clinical and non-clinical samples in the study of Bessmer (1996), respectively. Next, the nine parents' behaviors (i.e., Labeled Praise, Unlabeled Praise, Reflection, Behavioral Description, Negative Talk, Direct Command, Indirect Command, Question, and Neutral Talk), and three child's behaviors (i.e., Compliance, Noncompliance, and No Opportunity for Compliance) of the Chinese version of DPICS-III were used to examine its psychometric properties with a series of caregiver-reported measures.
Results: The results of this study showed no significant differences when compared to the compliance rates between Taiwanese and American children, but the frequencies of caregivers’ behaviors between the two samples were significantly different except the frequency of caregivers’ Question. In terms of reliability, the results indicated that the percent agreement ranged from 94.3% to 99.3% for parent behaviors, and from 92.5% to 96.9% for child behaviors; the Cohen's kappa coefficients ranged from .70 to .91 for parent behaviors, and from .67 to .73 for child behaviors. With regard to discriminant validity, the Negative Talk could differentiate between group with and without clinically elevated symptoms that were assessed by the Child Behavior Checklist For Ages 1½-5/6-18 (CBCL 1½-5/6-18) Total Problem and Eyberg Child Behavior Inventory (ECBI) Problem scales. The Reflection rates could differentiate between group with and without clinically elevated symptoms that were assessed by the CBCL 1½-5/6-18 Externalizing Problem scale. The ratio of children’s compliance to caregiver’s commands could differentiate between group with and without clinically elevated symptoms that were assessed by ECBI Intensity and Problem scales. Regarding convergent validity, the correlation analyses showed that the frequencies of Negative Talk were positively correlated with the ECBI Problem, Parenting Stress Index (PSI) Child Domain, and Conflict Tactics Scale: Parent-Child Version (CTSPC) Physical Assault scales; The frequencies of Command Total were positively correlated with the CTSPC Physical Assault subscale; Reflection rates were negatively correlated with the CTSPC Physical Assault and Psychological Aggression subscales; Children’s Compliance rate was negatively correlated with the Intensity and Problem subscales of the ECBI and the Total Scale, and Child and Parent Domain subscales of the PSI.
Discussion: The frequencies of the Taiwanese caregivers’ behaviors assessed by the Chinese version of DPICS-III in this study are different from that in the sample of American caregivers in the study of Bessmer (1996), suggesting that there may exist cultural differences in parent behaviors. In general, the Chinese version of DPICS-III has excellent to good reliability, and acceptable discriminant and convergent validity. When evaluating parenting practices, it is recommended to use the Chinese version of DPICS-III to assess the quality of parent-child interaction in Taiwanese samples for future clinical utility. Limitations and strengths of this study as well as suggestions of further research are discussed.
