Validación del inventario de conductas parentales: Un análisis factorial confirmatorio

Abstract

El Inventario de Conducta Parental (ICP) es un reciente instrumento de autorreporte diseñado para capturar dos dimensiones globales e independientes de la conducta de crianza en madres/padres de niños de edad preescolar y primeros años de escolaridad. Mediante dos estudios reportados en el presente artículo, se obtuvieron evidencias que señalan que ambos constructos pueden ser identificados en la muestra peruana de madres evaluadas y que mantienen relaciones nomológicas con variables emocionales, de la relación de pareja y demográficas.

The Parental Behavior Inventory (PBI) it is a recent self-report instrument designed to capture two independent global dimensions of the parental behavior mothers/fathers of preschool and younger students: Two studies were made to obtain evidences of the construct validity and internal dependability. Our first study had the goal of verifying the two constructos (construct validity); the results obtained using an confirmatory factorial analysis point out that both constructs can be identified in the sample of Peruvian evaluated mothers (n=115). The reliability to both subscales also is satisfactory. The second study it was made in 58 mothers, and we looked for extend the construct validity by means of the correlacional study of the PBI with emotional, couple’s relationship and demographic variables; the results support the relationships among the constructs measured by the PBI and the variables.
