Psychometric Properties of a Peruvian Translation of the Valuing Questionnaire (P-VQ): An Exploratory Structural Equation Modelling Approach
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
Values-based behavior is a highly studied concept but difficult to assess within the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy’s framework. For this reason, the present study sought to psychometrically adapt the P-VQ in a sample of 368 adults. Validity evidence based on test content (analysis of representativeness of each item) and based on the relationship with other variables (concurrent, divergent, and incremental validity) were satisfactorily obtained. Exploratory Structural Equation Modeling analyses supported evidence in favor of a two- dimensional latent structure with a better fit compared to previous Confirmatory Factor Analysis proposals. Reliability analysis (Alpha and Omega) demonstrated robust internal consistency of the scale. Measurement invariance (configural, metric, and scalar) regarding gender was obtained as evidence of equity. In conclusion, the P-VQ demonstrated excellent psychometric properties for validity, reliability, and fairness.
