Abstract

La mayoría de los casos de TDAH suceden en niños menores de cinco años, y esta situación requiere de herramientas de cribado con elevada sensibilidad y especificidad para edades tempranas. Se presenta la ADHD-3P, una nueva herramienta de cribado desarrollada con población española para niños de preescolar. A partir de 151 ítems, se realizaron análisis de la validez aparente, análisis de los ítems y de la escala. Estos resultaron en una escala de 27 ítems (α = .95) compuesta por tres factores: hiperactividad(α = .92), inatención (α = .92) y otros síntomas (α = .81). El poder discriminativo de la escala fue elevado (89.7% para niños con TDAH y 88.3% para niños sin TDAH). La capacidad diagnóstica fue evaluada mediante curvas ROC y mostró una excelente sensibilidad (92.86%) y especificidad (89.86%). En suma, la ADHD-3P es una herramienta prometedora para ser utilizada por padres, profesores y pediatras.
