description There is increasing interest in the study of flourishing as an indicator of subjective wellbeing. The objective herein was to adapt and study the psychometric properties of Diener’s Flourishing Scale (FS) among the Colombian population. Accordingly, a cross-sectional study was conducted with a non-probability sample of 1255 Colombian adults. The scale’s structure, invariance by gender, and convergent and concurrent validity were studied from a confirmatory perspective using structural equation models. The confirmatory factor analysis showed excellent fit indicators for the one-dimensional structure (CFI = 0.985, RMSEA = 0.039, SRMR = 0.020) as well as for the convergent (CFI = 0.909, RMSEA = 0.050, SRMR = 0.063) and concurrent (CFI = 0.966, RMSEA = 0.036, SRMR = 0.041) validity models. The correlations calculated among flourishing with positive and negative effects (PANAS), satisfaction with life (SWL), and optimism and pessimism (LOT) were statistically significant and as expected. Configural, metric, and scalar invariance across gender was confirmed. Percentiles were provided for the total score. The FS scale was a valid and reliable measure to assess high levels of wellbeing among the Colombian population

El objetivo fue adaptar y estudiar las propiedades psicométricas de la Escala de Florecimiento (FS) de Diener entre la población colombiana. En consecuencia, se realizó un estudio transversal con una muestra no probabilística de 1255 adultos colombianos. La estructura de la escala, la invariancia por género y la validez convergente y concurrente se estudiaron desde una perspectiva confirmatoria utilizando modelos de ecuaciones estructurales. El análisis factorial confirmatorio mostró excelentes indicadores de ajuste para la estructura unidimensional (CFI = 0.985, RMSEA = 0.039, SRMR = 0.020) así como para la convergente (CFI = 0.909, RMSEA = 0.050, SRMR = 0.063) y concurrente (CFI = 0.966, RMSEA = 0.036, SRMR = 0.041) modelos de validez. Las correlaciones calculadas entre florecimiento con efectos positivos y negativos (PANAS), satisfacción con la vida (SWL) y optimismo y pesimismo (LOT) fueron estadísticamente significativas y como se esperaba. Se confirmó la invariancia de configuración, métrica y escalar entre sexos. Se proporcionaron percentiles para la puntuación total. La escala FS fue una medida válida y confiable para evaluar altos niveles de bienestar entre la población colombiana.https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001561776https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6337-577Xhttps://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/gruplac/jsp/Medicion/graficas/verPerfiles.jsp?id_convocatoria=19&nroIdGrupo=00000000007548martha.martinc@campusucc.edu.cohttps://scholar.google.com/citations?user=dzSlO-cAAAAJ&hl=es12Facultad de Psicología, Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia, Seccional Santa MartaPsicologíaSanta Martahttps://www.mdpi.com/1660-4601/18/5/2664International Journal of Environmental Research and Public HealthHuppert, F.A.; Marks, N.; Clark, A.; Siegrist, J.; Stutzer, A.; Vittersø, J.; Wahrendorf, M.
