In order to do this two studies were conducted. In the first one, we evaluated the internal consistency and construct validation of data from 330 people between 18 and 52 years of age; in the second study, we evaluated the confirmatory factor and validation of data indicators from 1157 people between 18 and 65 years of age. The results show suitable indicators of internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.82), the exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis finds a one factor’s solution. The correlation between the SWLS, the WHOQOL-BREF Quality of Life Questionnaire, and the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS), display significant, consistent correlations in the expected direction. We conclude that the SWLS is a reliable and valid instrument to use for evaluating the cognitive sphere of subjective well-being in Chile’s adult populationEl objetivo de esta investigación fue evaluar las propiedades psicométricas del cuestionario de satisfacción con la vida (SWLS) en población adulta de 18 a 65 años. Para esto, se realizaron dos estudios. En el primero se evaluó la consistencia interna y la validez de constructo con datos de 330 personas entre 18 y 52 años. En el segundo estudio se evaluó la estructura factorial confirmatoria e indicadores de validez con datos de 1157 personas entre 18 y 65 años. Los resultados mostraron adecuados indicadores de consistencia interna (alfa de Cronbach = 0.82), en el análisis de estructura factorial exploratoria y confirmatoria se encontró una solución unifactorial. La correlación entre SWLS, Cuestionario de Calidad de Vida WHOQOL-BREF y Cuestionario de Dificultades en la Regulación Emocional, arrojó correlaciones significativas, congruentes y en la dirección esperada. Concluimos que el cuestionario SWLS es un instrumento confiable y válido para su utilización en la evaluación de la esfera cognitiva del bienestar subjetivo en población adulta en Chile.Pontificia Universidad Javeriananullnull2018-02-24T16:05:38Z2020-04-15T18:29:16Z2018-02-24T16:05:38Z2020-04-15T18:29:16Z2012-08-15http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85Artículo de revistahttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPDFapplication/pdfhttp://revistas.javeriana.edu.co/index.php/revPsycho/article/view/7192011-27771657-9267http://hdl.handle.net/10554/33236spahttp://revistas.javeriana.edu.co/index.php/revPsycho/article/view/719/2866Universitas Psychologica; Vol. 11, Núm. 3 (2012); 728Atribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 4.0 Internacionalinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2reponame:Repositorio Universidad Javerianainstname:Pontificia Universidad Javerianainstacron:Pontificia Universidad Javeriana2023-03-29T19:27:27Z |
