Abstract

Objective To verify the reliability and validity of Chinese Toddler Sleep Assessment Scale(TSAS), and to establish national norm and cut-off score. Methods Using multistage random sampling, totally 2 816 urban and rural caregivers whose child aged 12 to 35 months were selected in 14 cities of 7 provinces from May to December 2021. The internal consistency reliability, split-half reliability and confirmatory factor analysis were used to verify the reliability and validity of the scale. The percentile norm(P₅, P₁₅, P₅₀, P₈₅ and P₉₅) was established, and the total TSAS scores exceeding P₈₅ and P₉₇ were determined as the cut-offs for identifying poor sleep and abnormal sleep. Results The Cronbach′s α coefficients of TSAS was 0.73, the split-half reliability was 0.81, and the factor structure models were stable, which showed good reliability and validity. The age norm of TSAS was established. The total score >40 indicated poor sleep, and > 45 indicated abnormal sleep. Conclusions TSAS has stable reliability and validity. The established norm and cut-off can provide Objective reference for its promotion and application.
