MIPPE: Measure of Early Parent-Child Interactions Validation Data

228 parent-child interaction videos from 123 dyads were analyzed to validate the MIPPE assessment scale. The scale, developed in Eastern France, includes 9 items scored from 0 to 3 and demonstrates high internal consistency (Cronbach’s α = 0.92). Clinical thresholds of 15 and 20 points have been established for early screening of interactional difficulties.

Use Cases

• Validate psychometric scales based on Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's omega scores
• Establish clinical thresholds for screening interactional difficulties based on the 9-item scale
• Analyze factor structure of behavioral assessments based on exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis results
• Compare intervention and control groups in developmental studies based on data from 62 intervention and 61 control dyads

Strengths

• Psychometric validation includes high internal consistency scores (Cronbach’s α = 0.92, McDonald’s ω = 0.93)
• Factor analysis shows a unidimensional structure explaining 66% of the variance, confirmed by CFI = 1.000, TLI = 1.002, RMSEA = 0.000
• Dataset includes 228 observation videos from 123 dyads, providing a substantial sample for validation

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to its collection in Eastern France
