Resumen En Psicología, para obtener evidencias sobre validez de constructo mediante Análisis Factorial Confirmatorio es habitual trabajar con variables ordinales que presentan asimetría. este estudio simulación se analiza el comportamiento del método Mínimos Cuadrados no Ponderados (ULS) en escalas tipo Likert base los índices χ2 razón verosimilitud (C2) y RMSEA. Para ello, han manipulado cuatro factores experimentales: número o dimensiones (2, 3, 4, 5, 6), puntos respuesta (3, grado...

The aim of this study was to validate a Spanish version the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ-S), originally developed by Garnefski, Kraaij, and Spinhoven. To date, it is only available instrument that permits conceptually pure quantification cognitive strategies emotional regulation. A sample 615 students (25% men; 75% women) completed CERQ-S. Confirmatory factor analyses showed that, as in original version, nine-factor model also explained data collected with version....

The widespread use of Pearson correlations and, by extension, the Maximum Likelihood estimation method, does not take into account measurement properties Likert scales observed variables when carrying out a construct validity process through Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). This simulation study compares four methods (Maximum –ML-, Robust –RML-, Unweighted Least Squares –, RULS) according to two assumptions CFA is supposed fulfil: multivariate normality especially, continuous nature both...

In order to obtain evidences about construct validity through Confirmatory Factor Analysis, it has been usual treating Likert-type scales as if they were continuous variables measured on an interval scale. Therefore, Maximum Likelihood estimation method broadly applied, but in turn implies problems concerning both Pearson correlations and skewness the distribution of responses items. this simulation study we analyse —through χ2, Type I error, power— correctly specified misspecified models...

Abstract The combination of depression and anxiety is among the most prevalent comorbidities disorders leading to substantial functional impairment in children adolescents. network perspective offers a new paradigm for understanding measuring psychological constructs their comorbidity. present study aims apply analysis explore comorbidity between symptoms. Specifically, examines bridge symptoms, comorbidity, shortest pathway networks estimates impact symptoms network’s connectivity...

The Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ) (Garnefski, et al., 2001) is a 36-item instrument for measuring cognitive strategies of emotional regulation. There brief, 18-item version that measures the same nine as full (Garnefski and Kraaij, 2006a). aim this study was to develop brief form CERQ, taking into account two different proposals: 27-item an instrument, latter focusing solely on assessment general factors obtained in second-order structure original CERQ model identified...

We describe the process of testing a measurement model satisfaction rating scale for use with training programs. The was developed by Evaluation Unit University Seville's Training Center. Following an initial content validity study in which we reviewed how evaluation is modeled, 12-item and administered to sample 2746 subjects. examined through exploratory factor analysis using polychoric correlations, results were consistent previous dimensions obtained study. In order refine under study,...

Background: Resilience has received considerable attention in recent years and is a psychological characteristic that favors positive adaptation to adversity. Objective: The objective of this work generate Spanish the Scale (ER, acronym Spanish) study dimensionality scale through confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Methods: ER was administered 1058 young people. original English version (25 items) translated into Spanish, translation confirmed backtranslation. consists two major factors:...

There is increasing research interest in the relationships between different emotion regulation strategies and symptoms or other emotional traits. This study considers these types of as personal dispositions relation to factors, an effort identify cognitive profiles analyze their predictive capacity for positive negative affect, traits (anxiety anger), depressive symptomatology. Participants were 350 individuals (50% men) with a mean age 35.69 (SD = 7.5). The data analysis methods employed...

Research has shown that father involvement and children's perceived parental warmth contribute significantly to psychological adjustment. This study examines the mediating role of acceptance (i.e. mothers fathers) between father's child's adjustment in terms personality dispositions behavioral problems (internalizing externalizing). The sample was composed 1036 non-clinical children from 9 19 years old (45.1% males) who completed Parental Acceptance‒Rejection Questionnaire, Personality...

This study examines the relationships between perceived parental acceptance and children's behavioral problems (externalizing internalizing) from a multi-informant perspective. Using mothers, fathers, children as sources of information, we explore informant effect incremental validity. The sample was composed 681 participants (227 children, 227 mothers). Children's (40% boys) ages ranged 9 to 17 years (M = 12.52, SD 1.81). Parents completed both Parental Acceptance Rejection/Control...

The present study examined the structure of Bryant's Empathy Index (BEI) using different samples for conducting exploratory and confirmatory analyses. BEI was administered to a sample 2714 children (mean age 11.12, SD = 1.59). Exploratory factor analyses showed three-factor structure: Feelings Sadness, Understanding Tearful Reaction. results revealed both multidimensionality instrument appropriate fit indices model proposed. Although these were very similar those reported in other studies...
