MIPPE: Distribution of Responses to Early Parent-Child Interaction Items

228 parent-child interaction videos from 123 dyads were analyzed to validate the MIPPE assessment scale. Emmanuelle Dufait developed this 9-item tool within the PERL program in Eastern France. The dataset contains scored responses from dyads at 4 and 24 months, split between intervention and control groups.

Use Cases

• Validate psychometric properties of a clinical scale based on Cronbach's α and McDonald's ω scores
• Establish clinical thresholds for screening interactional difficulties based on sensitivity analysis
• Analyze factor structure of interaction quality items based on exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis results
• Compare interaction scores between intervention and control groups based on the 62/61 dyad split

Strengths

• Psychometric validation includes high internal consistency (Cronbach's α=0.92, McDonald's ω=0.93)
• Factor analysis confirms a unidimensional structure explaining 66% of variance with excellent fit indices (CFI=1.000, RMSEA=0.000)
• Clinical thresholds (15 and 20) are established with optimal sensitivity of 87%

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Geographic coverage is limited to Eastern France, which may affect generalizability
