Estructura interna de la versión abreviada del Inventario de Respuestas de Afrontamiento

Abstract

The aim of this study was to analyze the internal structure of the short version of the Coping Responses Inventory (CRI-SF) with a sample of 987 individuals aged between 18 and 63 years (M = 29; SD = 9.86) from the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina. Three models were compared using confirmatory factor analyses: Model 1, which tested the fit of the 24 items of the CRI-SF to the approach and avoidance factors; Model 2, which tested the fit of the 24 items to four dimensions according to focus and method; and Model 3, which tested the fit of the 24 items to eight dimensions with second-order approach and avoidance factors. Respecified Models 1 and 2 showed adequate fit, with the following values : χ² (GL) = 650.18 (146), RMSEA (IC 90 %) = .07 (.07-.08), SRMR = .08, CFI = .92, TLI = .91, GFI = .96, PNFI = .73, AIC = 46629.55, y χ² (GL) = 747.55 (146), RMSEA (IC 90 %) = .06 (.06-.07), SRMR = .07, CFI = .93, TLI = .92, GFI = .97, PNFI = .79, AIC = 51908.43, respectively, and invariance by gender. Model 1 showed higher reliability values. Based on the results and the underlying theoretical model, a valid and reliable short form of the CRI-SF was obtained, consisting of 19 items that measure four factors.
