Sammendrag

Beskrivelse: Multidimensional Anxiety Scale for Children – parent version (MASC-P) kartlegger angstsymptomer hos barn og unge basert på foreldrerapporteringer. Originalutgaven ble utviklet i 1997 av John March og kollegaer. Arnulf Kolstad har oversatt instrumentet til norsk. MultiHealth Systems (MHS) er utgiver og de krever lisens for å benytte instrumentet. Selve
spørreskjemaet består av 39 ledd, fordelt på fire delskalaer. En totalsum angir alvorlighetsgrad av angstsymptomer hos barnet. I tillegg gis en indikasjon på hvilken av de ulike dimensjonene av angst som barnet skårer høyest på gjennom skårer på de ulike delskalaene. Det tar 10 til 15 minutter å gjennomføre testen, og det oppfordres til at man har en viss kjennskap til bruk av
tester (tilsvarende kvalifikasjonsnivå B hos den britiske psykologforeningen) for å administrere, skåre og tolke resultatene.

Litteratursøk: Seks norske artikler ble inkluderte etter gjennomgang av litteratursøket. De inkluderte studiene rapporterte psykometriske data fra foreldre til kliniske og symptomatiske barn i alderen 7–13 år.

Psykometri: Psykometriske data omfattet beregninger av indre konsistens og begrepsvaliditet. Begrepsvaliditet ble vurdert gjennom sammenligninger i skårer mellom kliniske og ikke-kliniske utvalg, og i hvilken grad MASC-P skårer predikerte angstdiagnoser. Gjennomsnittsverdier, median, gruppeforskjeller, samt samsvar mellom barn og foreldre ble også oppgitt i de inkluderte artiklene.

Konklusjon: MASC-P demonstrerer adekvate psykometriske egenskaper i samsvar med internasjonale studier. Studiene viser god til utmerket indre konsistens for de ulike skalaene, og instrumentet er i stand til å skille mellom ulike grupper. Det foreligger ingen norske normeringsstudier og sensitivitet for endring vurderes som uavklart.
