  • Using the Mobile Toolbox in child and adolescent samples

    Open AccessStephanie Ruth Young, Miriam A Novack et al.ARTICLEChild Development2024

    Cognitive research with developmental samples requires improved methods that support large-scale, diverse, and open science. This paper offers initial evidence to support the Mobile Toolbox (MTB), a self-administered remote smartphone-based cognitive battery, in youth populations, from a pilot sample of 99 children (Mage = 11.79 years; 36% female; 53% White, 33% Black or African American, 9% Asian, and 15% Hispanic). Completion rates (95%–99%), p…

  • The NIH Infant and Toddler Toolbox

    Open AccessRichard Gershon, Miriam A Novack et al.ARTICLEChild Development2024

    The progress of developmental research demands reliable measurement techniques, yet inconsistency persist across laboratories, subfields, and settings. To address this, the NIH Toolbox for Neurological and Behavioral Function (NIHTB)® has been extended to create a universal assessment for developmental and pediatric communities: The NIH Infant and Toddler (“Baby”) Toolbox. Currently undergoing norming in a sample of 2550 children demographically …

  • Prediction of cognitive impairment using higher order item response theory and machine learning models

    Open AccessLihua Yao, Yusuke Shono et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychiatry2024

    Timely detection of cognitive impairment (CI) is critical for the wellbeing of elderly individuals. The MyCog assessment employs two validated iPad-based measures from the NIH Toolbox ® for Assessment of Neurological and Behavioral Function (NIH Toolbox). These measures assess pivotal cognitive domains: Picture Sequence Memory (PSM) for episodic memory and Dimensional Change Card Sort Test (DCCS) for cognitive flexibility. The study involved 86 p…

  • Clarifying thresholds for defining levels of physical function and pain interference using bookmarking in orthopaedics

    Open AccessNan Rothrock, Anastasiya Drandarov et al.ARTICLEQuality of Life Research2024

    Testing new vignette scores within the same patient population enables more nuanced testing of score ranges without clear consensus and provides additional evidence for recommending thresholds for severity categories. These thresholds can be utilized to help interpret PROMIS scores from patients receiving orthopaedic care

  • Differential item functioning between English, German, and Spanish PROMIS® physical function ceiling items

    Open AccessConstantin Yves Plessen, Felix Fischer et al.ARTICLEQuality of Life Research2024

    Our findings support the universal applicability of PROMIS Physical Function items across general populations in Argentina, Germany, and the U.S. The sensitivity analyses indicate that the identification of DIF items was robust for different data analytic decisions. Multiverse analysis is a promising approach to address lack of clear cutoffs in DIF identification

  • Using bookmarking methods with orthopedic clinicians and patients with fractures produces score interpretation labels for patient-reported outcome measures

    Open AccessNan Rothrock, Sandra A Wilson et al.ARTICLEQuality of Life Research2023

    Objective The objective of this study was to determine the patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) score ranges associated with descriptive labels (i.e., within normal limits, mild, moderate, severe) by using bookmarking methods with orthopedic clinicians and patients who have experienced a bone fracture. Study design and setting We created vignettes comprised of six items and responses from the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information S…

  • Modifying the social responsiveness scale for adaptive administration

    Open AccessAaron J Kaat, Lisa Croen et al.ARTICLEQuality of Life Research2023

  • What is typical

    Open AccessAmanda N Nili, Meghan Miller et al.ARTICLEInfant Mental Health Journal2023Referencias: 44

    While attention dysregulation is a promising early indicator of neurodevelopmental risk, in particular attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), it is difficult to characterize clinical concern due to its developmental expectability at the transition to toddlerhood. Thus, explicating the typical:atypical continuum of risk indicators is among the key future directions for research to promote early identification and intervention, and preven…

  • Don't Get Lost in Translation

    Open AccessLauren S Wakschlag, Amy Finlay‐jone et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022

    Translation of developmental science discoveries is impeded by numerous barriers at different stages of the research-to-practice pipeline. Actualization of the vast potential of the developmental sciences to improve children's health and development in the real world is imperative but has not yet been fully realized. In this commentary, we argue that an integrated developmental-implementation sciences framework will result in a translational mind…

  • Calibrating temper loss severity in the transition to toddlerhood

    Sheila Krogh‐Jespersen, Aaron J Kaat et al.ARTICLEApplied Developmental Science2022

    The integration of neurodevelopmental perspectives into clinical science has identified irritability as an early dimensional marker of lifespan mental health risk. Elucidating the developmental patterning of irritable behavior is key to differentiating normative variation from risk markers. Accounting for dysregulation and contextual features of irritability is useful for differentiation at preschool age, laying the groundwork for even earlier ch…

  • Sex differences in scores on standardized measures of autism symptoms

    Open AccessAaron J Kaat, Amy M Shui et al.ARTICLEJournal of Child Psychology and…2021

    BACKGROUND: Concerns have been raised that scores on standard measures of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) symptoms may differ as a function of sex. However, these findings are hindered by small female samples studied thus far. The current study evaluated if, after accounting for age, IQ, and language level, sex affects ASD severity estimates from diagnostic measures among children with ASD. METHODS: Data were obtained from eight sources comprising…

  • Psychometric properties of the PROMIS-57 questionnaire, Norwegian version

    Open AccessStein Arne Rimehaug, Aaron J Kaat et al.ARTICLEQuality of Life Research2021

    The psychometric properties and factor structure of Norwegian PROMIS-57 were satisfactory. Hence, the 57-item questionnaire along with PROMIS-29, and the corresponding 8 and 4 item short forms for physical function, anxiety, depression, fatigue, sleep disturbance, social participation ability and pain interference, are considered suitable for use in research and clinical care in Norwegian populations. Further studies on longitudinal reliability a…
