Eine qualitative Itemanalyse der Skala der Emotionalen Entwicklung – Diagnostik (SEED)

Zusammenfassung

Die Skala der Emotionalen Entwicklung – Diagnostik (SEED) ist ein standardisiertes Diagnoseinstrument, basierend auf dem emotionalen Entwicklungsansatz zur differentialdiagnostischen Einordnung von Verhaltensstörungen und herausfordernden Verhaltensweisen von Personen mit einer Störung der Intelligenzentwicklung. Die 200 Items ermitteln das emotionale Referenzalter von 0–12 Jahren in 8 Entwicklungsbereichen. Eine Expertenbefragung zeigte eine sehr gute bis gute Beobachtbarkeit der beschriebenen Verhaltensweisen, Spezifität für eine bestimmte Entwicklungsphase und Stimmigkeit der Formulierung für Kinder bzw. Erwachsene, während die Nichtabgrenzbarkeit zu benachbarten Entwicklungsphasen mit „kaum“ bewertet wurde. Bezüglich der Abgrenzbarkeit bestand in den Entwicklungsbereichen Umgang mit dem eigenen Körper, Umgang mit Umgebungsveränderung – Objektpermanenz, Emotionsdifferenzierung und Affektregulation und in den Entwicklungsphasen 4 (4.–7. Lebensjahr) und 5 (8.–12. Lebensjahr) der größte Überarbeitungsbedarf.

Abstract

The Scale of Emotional Development – Diagnostic (SEED) is a standardized diagnostic instrument based on the emotional development approach. It contributes to the diagnostic assessment of challenging behaviors in individuals with intellectual developmental disabilities. The 200-item scale determines the emotional reference age from 0–12 years in 8 domains. An expert survey showed a very good to good observability of the described behaviors, the specificity for a certain developmental phase and the appropriateness of the phrasing for children and adults while the non-differentiability to adjacent developmental phases was rated with “hardly”. Regarding the differentiability, the major need for revision was described in the domains Relating to Their Own Body, Dealing with Change – Object Permanence, Differentiating Emotions and Regulating Affect and in phases 4 (reference ages: 4–7 years) and 5 (reference age: 8–12 years).
