Abstract
Este trabajo presenta un estudio de validacion de la Escala de Competencia Social Percibida en la Carrera (ECSCar). La muestra incluyo 571 adolescentes, 283 mujeres (49.6%) y 287 hombres (50.3%), de 14 a 25 anos de edad (ƒÊ=16.33}1.41), estudiantes de 10o y 11o grado de escuelas secundarias en el norte, centro y sur de Portugal. El analisis factorial exploratorio indica la presencia de ocho factores con valores propios superiores a 1.00, que explican 79.16% de la varianza total de los items. El analisis factorial confirmatorio apoya la estructura factorial de ocho factores con los indices de ajuste adecuados (X2/df=4.229, CFI= 0.909, GFI= 0.869, RMSEA= 0.079, p= 0.000). Estos resultados son consistentes con la estructura factorial encontrada en estudios previos realizados con muestras de portugueses de 8o grado. Se elaboran implicaciones relativas a la necesidad de un mayor estudio de las caracteristicas psicometricas de la ECSCar con jovenes de diferentes grupos de edad.This journal is registered under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License.
