abstract="BACKGROUND: A review of the scientific literature showed few valid tools for assessing reactive attachment disorder (RAD) and disinhibited social engagement  disorder (DSED), two diagnostic entities traditionally grouped under &quot;attachment  disorders.&quot; The Early TRAuma-related Disorders Questionnaire (ETRADQ), a caregiver  report, was developed to assess attachment disorders in school-age children based on  the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-Fifth edition criteria. This study sought to validate this instrument. <br><br>METHOD: Caregivers of school-age  children from the community (n = 578) and caregivers of at-risk children adopted or  in out-of-home care (n = 245) completed a sociodemographic questionnaire, the  ETRADQ, the Relationship Problem Questionnaire, the RADA (RAD and DSED Assessment)  interview, and the Barkley Functional Impairment Scale for Children and Adolescents. <br><br>RESULTS: Confirmatory factor analysis of the ETRADQ items supported the expected  organization of the measure, that is, two second-order factors and five subfactors:  (1) RAD scale (three subscales: Low selective attachment, Low social and emotional  responsiveness, Emotional unpredictability) and (2) DSED scale (two subscales:  Interactions with unfamiliar adults, Social disinhibition). All scales showed  excellent internal consistency, test-retest reliability, convergent validity, and  known-group validity. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: Results support the reliability and validity of  the ETRADQ.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
