Social Responsibility Scale (SRS-2): Validity Evidence Based on Internal Structure

Abstract This study aimed to provide evidence of validity for the Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS-2) based on its internal structure. The results of 1,001 participants, aged between two and 73 years, indicated through Path Analysis that Social Perception predicts 56%, while Social Cognition predicts 79% of social responsiveness, Social Communication 92%, Social Motivation 70%, finally The Social Communication and Social Interaction subscale can predict 96% of social responsiveness. The subscales have a strong correlation magnitude and evidence the contribution of the SRS-2 to assess social responsiveness, in addition to being promising to predict the diagnosis of ASD at the national level.摘要 本研究旨在基于内部结构维度，为社交反应量表（Social Responsiveness Scale，SRS-2）的效度验证提供实证支撑。针对1001名年龄介于2岁至73岁的参与者开展的路径分析结果显示：社交感知可解释56%的社交反应变异，社交认知可解释79%，社交沟通可解释92%，社交动机可解释70%；最终，社交沟通与社交互动分量表可解释96%的社交反应变异。各分量表间具有较强的相关性，证实了SRS-2在社交反应评估中的应用价值，同时该量表在全国层面预测孤独症谱系障碍（Autism Spectrum Disorder，ASD）诊断的应用前景亦十分可观。
