Parental Assessment of Childhood Social Phobia: Psychometric Properties of the Social Phobia and Anxiety Inventory for Children–Parent Report

Abstract

Validity and parent-child agreement of the Social Phobia and Anxiety Inventory for Children-Parent Report (SPAI-C-P) were examined in a racially diverse sample of 158 students in Grades 5 through 8 (87 girls; ages 10 to 14; M = 11.53) and their caregivers. Children completed the Social Phobia and Anxiety Inventory for Children (SPAI-C), and caregivers completed the SPAI-C-P and the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL). The SPAI-C-P demonstrated good internal consistency and was significantly correlated with child self-reported social anxiety. Confirmatory factor analysis supported a 3-factor model over a 5-factor model, and concurrent validity was evidenced. Implications and directions for future research are discussed.
