Preliminary examination of a cartoon-based hostile attributional bias measure for urban African American boys . The current study illustrates how researchers developed and validated a cartoon-based adaptation of a written hostile attributional bias measure for a sample of urban , low-income , African American boys . A series of studies were conducted to develop cartoon illustrations to accompany a standard written hostile attributional bias vignette measure ( Study 1 ) , to determine initial psychometric properties ( Study 2 ) and acceptability ( Study 3 ) , and to conduct a test-retest reliability trial of the adapted measure in a separate sample ( Study 4 ) . These studies utilize a participatory action research approach to measurement design and adaptation , and suggest that collaborations between researchers and key school stakeholders can lead to measures that are psychometrically strong , developmentally appropriate , and culturally sensitive . In addition , the cartoon-based hostile attributional bias measure appears to have promise as an assessment and/or outcome measure for aggression and bullying prevention programs conducted with urban African American boys .
