Background/Aims: Utilization of a psychosocial screener to identify families affected by a disorder/difference of sex development (DSD) and at risk for adjustment challenges may facilitate efficient use of team resources to optimize care. The Psychosocial Assessment Tool (PAT) has been used in other pediatric conditions. The current study explored the reliability and validity of the PAT (modified for use within the DSD population; PAT-DSD). Methods: Participants were 197 families enrolled in the DSD-Translational Research Network (DSD-TRN) who completed a PAT-DSD during a DSD clinic visit. Psychosocial data were extracted from the DSD-TRN clinical registry. Internal reliability of the PAT-DSD was tested using the Kuder-Richardson-20 coefficient. Validity was examined by exploring the correlation of the PAT-DSD with other measures of caregiver distress and child emotional-behavioral functioning. Results: One-third of families demonstrated psychosocial risk (27.9% “Targeted” and 6.1% “Clinical” level of risk). Internal reliability of the PAT-DSD Total score was high (α = 0.86); 4 of 8 subscales met acceptable internal reliability. A priori predicted relationships between the PAT-DSD and other psychosocial measures were supported. The PAT-DSD Total score related to measures of caregiver distress (r = 0.40, p < 0.001) and to both caregiver-reported and patient self-reported behavioral problems (r = 0.61, p < 0.00; r = 0.37, p < 0.05). Conclusions: This study provides evidence for the reliability and validity of the PAT-DSD. Given variability in the internal reliability across subscales, this measure is best used to screen for overall family risk, rather than to assess specific psychosocial concerns.

ObjectiveThis study aims to test a Chinese cross-cultural adaptation of the English version of the Person-Centred Care Assessment Tool (P-CAT) and evaluate its psychometric properties.DesignP-CAT was translated/back-translated using established procedures before the psychometric evaluation of the Chinese version was made.SettingTwo hospitals covering urban and suburban areas of Kunming in the Yunnan province of China.Participants152 female hospital staff completed the survey.Main outcome measure(s)Construct validity and reliability, including internal consistency and test–retest reliability, were assessed among a sample of hospital staff.ResultsThe factor analysis resulted in a two-component solution that consisted of two subscales. The corrected item-total correlations for all of the items ranged from 0.14 to 0.44, with six items not meeting the cut-off level for item-total correlation (>0.3). The Chinese P-CAT demonstrated strong reliability, with a Cronbach’s alpha of 0.91–0.94 for the scales and a test–retest reliability coefficient of 0.88 for the overall scale scores. The intraclass correlation was 0.92 (95% CI 0.90 to 0.95).ConclusionP-CAT appears to be a promising measure for evaluating staff perceptions of person-centredness in Chinese hospital environments. The results show that P-CAT can be a useful tool for improving the quality of healthcare in terms of person-centred care in the Chinese context.
