Abstract

Introduction: Validity and reliability evaluations of the Emotional Quotient Inventory: Youth Version (EQ-i: YV[S]) with children and adolescents from diﬀerent countries have shown variations in the structural model proposed by Bar-On.

Objective: To examine the psychometric properties of EQ-i: YV[S] with a Colombian' sample.

Method: We randomly selected a sample of 1355 children and adolescents between 8 and 14 years old (M_age = 10.80; SD = 1.41). We conducted exploratory (n₁ = 416) and conﬁrmatory (n₂ = 939) factor analyses (EFA, CFA), reliability, internal consistency, and predictive validity.

Results: The EFA explained 27.6% of the variance. The AFC indicated a multidimensional structure with four factors and 21 items obtained the best ﬁt (χ² = 334.358; df = 183; RMSEA=0.030; CFI=.951; TLI=944; NFI=.899) with acceptable internal consistency (ω = .57,.75). EQ-i: YV[S] factors explain 18.5% of the observed variance in problem-centered coping scores.

Conclusions: The psychometric ﬁt of the inventory supports evidence of its usefulness for screening processes in clinical or educational assessment.

西班牙语版EQ-i: YV量表在哥伦比亚儿童和青少年中的效度和信度[S]。

前言:不同国家的儿童和青少年的情商量表(EQ-i: YV[S])的效度和信度评估在Bar-On提出的结构模型上存在差异。目的:以哥伦比亚人为样本，探讨eq - 1: YV[S]的心理测量特征。方法:随机抽取8 ~ 14岁儿童青少年1355例(Mage = 10.80;Sd = 1.41)。我们进行了探索性(n1 = 416)和验证性(n2 = 939)因素分析(EFA, CFA)、信度、内部一致性和预测效度。结果:EFA解释了27.6%的方差。AFC呈多维结构，有4个因素，其中21项拟合最佳(χ2 = 334.358;Df = 183;RMSEA = 0.030;CFI = .951;TLI = 944;NFI=.899)，内部一致性可接受(ω =. 57，.75)。eq - 1: YV[S]因子解释了18.5%的以问题为中心的应对得分差异。结论:该量表的心理测量契合度支持其在临床或教育评估筛选过程中有用的证据。
