Abstract

Objective : The purpose of the study is to examine the construct validity and internal consistency of the Sensory Processing Scale for Children (SPS-C). Method : 117 participants who are aged 3 to 5 years old has been evaluated by the Sensory Processing Scale for Children (SPS-C) for this study and the period is from November 2014 to June 2016. Statistics used for data analysis is factor analysis for construct validity and Cronbach's alpha for internal consistency. Results : In the factor analysis, the items in auditory, visual, and tactile showed a high factor loading, respectively. The items in vestibular and proprioceptive were overlapped. For internal consistency, Cronbach's alpha was .728 for whole scale which is high level. And Cronbach's alpha of each factor was range within .326~.636. Conclusion : The results of the psychometric test in this study evidence that the SPS-C is valid and reliable to be utilized. Further study need to examine various validities and reliabilities as well as standardization.

목적 : 본 연구의 목적은 국내에서 개발된 아동감각처리척도(Sensory Processing Scale for Children: SPS-C)의 구성타당도와 내적일치도를 검증하는 것이다. 연구방법 : 2014년 11월부터 2016년 6월까지 감각처리 문제가 있는 만 3~5세 아동 117명을 대상으로 SPS-C 평가를 시행한 자료를 바탕으로 요인 분석과 내적 일치도 분석을 시행하였다. 결과 : 요인분석 결과, 청각, 시각, 촉각 영역은 각각 높은 요인 부하량으로 묶였으며, 전정감각과 고유수용성감각은 두 영역의 요인 부하량이 중복되는 경향으로 나타났다. 내적 일치도 검증 결과 전체 척도의 내적 일치도는 .728이었으며, 각 영역별 내적 일치도는 .323~.636 수준의 신뢰도를 보였다. 결론 : 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 SPS-C의 타당도와 신뢰도가 검증되었으며, 추후 연구에서는 다양한 타당도와 신뢰도 검증 및 표준화 연구가 이루어져야 할 것이다.
