Abstract

Sotsiaal-emotsionaalsed oskused on sotsiaalse pädevuse oluline osa. Eestis puuduvad sobilikud mõõtevahendid koolieelikute sotsiaal-emotsionaalse arengu hindamiseks. 2009. aastal kohandati TÜK Lastekliinikus eesti keelde küsimustike "Ages and Stages: Social-Emotional Questionnaires" (ASQ:SE) 2001. aastal ilmunud metoodika. 2015. aastal ilmus ASQ:SE parandatud versioon (ASQ:SE-2), mis nüüdseks samuti eestindatud. Siinse töö eesmärk on tutvustada eestindatud ASQ:SE-2 36 kuu vanuste laste küsimustiku sobivust eesti laste sotsiaal-emotsionaalse arengu hindamiseks (sh täpsustada küsimustiku psühhomeetrilisi näitajaid). Uuringus osales 62 last vanuses 31–43 kuud. Tulemustest selgus, et eestikeelse ASQ:SE-2 36 kuu vanuste laste küsimustiku sisereliaablus on aktsepteeritav (α = 0,719), spetsiifilisus ja sensitiivsus on vastavalt 81,5 ja 66,7 protsenti, võrdlev valiidsus rahuldav (r = –0,629, p < 0,00). Esmased tulemused kinnitasid ASQ:SE-2 36 kuu vanuste laste hindamiseks mõeldud küsimustiku sobivust eesti laste sotsiaalemotsionaalse arengu sõeltestimiseks.
