The revised Children's Knowledge of Abuse Questionnaire: Development of a measure of children's understanding of sexual abuse prevention concepts

The revised Children's Knowledge of Abuse Questionnaire: Development of a measure of children's... Abstract The Children's Knowledge of Abuse Questionnaire (CKAQ) was designed to evaluate elementary school children's learning of the key concepts taught in most sexual abuse prevention programs. The psychometric properties of the original 40-item CKAQ were established with 322 children ages six to 12. A new factor analysis suggests that a 24-item version would adequately measure knowledge of abuse prevention concepts. This article presents the psychometric properties of the revised version, including item-to-corrected-total correlations, interitem correlations, and one-month test—retest reliability. The analyses suggest several ways in which the CKAQ-Revised could be further improved.

Abstract

Abstract The Children's Knowledge of Abuse Questionnaire (CKAQ) was designed to evaluate elementary school children's learning of the key concepts taught in most sexual abuse prevention programs. The psychometric properties of the original 40-item CKAQ were established with 322 children ages six to 12. A new factor analysis suggests that a 24-item version would adequately measure knowledge of abuse prevention concepts. This article presents the psychometric properties of the revised version, including item-to-corrected-total correlations, interitem correlations, and one-month test—retest reliability. The analyses suggest several ways in which the CKAQ-Revised could be further improved. This content is only available as a PDF. © 1995, National Association of Social Workers, Inc.
