Resumen
El presente estudio tiene como objetivo desarrollar y validar una escala para evaluar la búsqueda e identificación de propósito vital (PV) para su uso con adolescentes de zonas urbanas de Argentina. En total participaron 554 adolescentes (13 a 19 años y de ambos sexos) de escuelas del Área Metropolitana Bonaerense (AMBA). El proceso de desarrollo y validación se realizó a través de tres estudios. En el primero, se elaboró la Escala (denominada Escala de Propósito vital para Adolescentes), se estudió la validez de contenido y su estructura interna por medio de análisis factorial exploratorio. En el segundo, se confirmó dicha estructura por medio de análisis factorial confirmatorio. En el tercero, para obtener evidencias adicionales a favor de la validez de constructo, se indagó la relación entre la búsqueda de PV y la identificación de PV, estudiando la conformación de perfiles (análisis de clúster) y examinando la asociación entre el PV y la claridad en el autoconcepto. Los resultados muestran que la Escala de Propósito vital para Adolescentes presenta una adecuada validez de contenido, factorial y de constructo, y una consistencia interna satisfactoria.
The aim of this study is to present the development and validation process of a scale to evaluate seeking and finding purpose in life (PL) for its use with adolescents in urban areas of Argentina. A total of 554 adolescents (13 to 19 years old and of both sexes) from schools in the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Area (AMBA) participated. The development and validation process were carried out through three studies. In the first study, the scale was developed (named Life Purpose Scale for Adolescents), content validity was studied, and its internal structure was analyzed through exploratory factor analysis. In the second study, this structure was confirmed by means of confirmatory factor analysis. In the third study, to obtain additional evidence in favor of construct validity, the relationship between seeking PL and finding PL was investigated, studying the formation of profiles (cluster analysis) and examining the association between PL and selfconcept clarity. The results show that the Life Purpose Scale for Adolescents has adequate content, factor and construct validity, and satisfactory internal consistency.
