Abstract

Introduction: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted to evaluate the factor structure of Spanish translation and adaptation of the Cognitive Flexibility Inventory (CFI) in a sample of Colombian adults.

Method: The sample of the study was n = 968. Respondents were aged between 18 and 52 years old (Mage=22.81, SD=4.42). Descriptive analyses, conﬁrmatory factor analysis, and Cronbach's Alpha calculation were carried out.

Results: Internal consistency for the global scale was high (α=.89). Likewise, the coeﬃcients of the Alternative factor and the Control factor were similar (α=.90, 95% CI=.89-.90 and α=.83, 95% CI=.81-.85, respectively). A two-factor structure performed best according to the results of model selection criteria. This model suggested the existence of two correlated factors, with correlated items within factors (Item19 Item20 and Item8 Item10).

Conclusions: Overall, the results suggest that the CFI scale exhibits construct validity and adequate reliability, both for the general scale and the subscales in the Colombian sample, enabling their use in contexts such as clinical or research.

哥伦比亚样本认知灵活性量表的心理测量学研究。

摘要:本研究以哥伦比亚成人为样本，对西班牙语翻译的因素结构和认知灵活性量表(CFI)的适应性进行了横断面描述性研究。方法:本研究样本为n = 968。受访者年龄在18 - 52岁之间(Mage=22.81, SD=4.42)。进行描述性分析、验证性因子分析和Cronbach's Alpha计算。结果:整体量表内部一致性高(α= 0.89)。同样，选择因子和控制因子的系数相似(α=。90, 95% ci = 0.89 -。90和α=。83, 95% ci =.81-。85年,分别)。根据模型选择标准的结果，双因素结构表现最佳。该模型表明存在两个相关因子，因子内有相关项(Item19 Item20和Item8 Item10)。结论:总体而言，结果表明CFI量表在哥伦比亚样本的一般量表和子量表中都表现出结构效度和足够的信度，使其能够在临床或研究等背景下使用。
