Does the Spanish version of the SWLS measure the same in Spain and Peru?
2019
Aim Satisfaction with life is a measure of protection in older adults. There lies the importance of providing quality instruments. The aim of the study was to evaluate the invariance of the life satisfaction scale (SWLS) in two samples of older adults in Spain and Peru. Method The participants were 857 older adults in Spain (mean age = 68.23 years, SD = 5.93) and 336 older adults in Peru (average age = 72.42, SD = 7.07). All multi-group confirmatory factor analyzes were estimated in Mplus 8.0. Results The results indicate the presence of a strict invariance of the one-dimensional structure of the SWLS in samples of older adults in Spain and Peru, which allows for meaningful comparisons of l…

El viaje desde los cuestionarios Likert a los cuestionarios de elección forzosa: evidencia de la invarianza de los parámetros de los ítems
2019
Multidimensional forced-choice questionnaires are widely regarded in the personnel selection literature for their ability to control response biases. Recently developed IRT models usually rely on the assumption that item parameters remain invariant when they are paired in forced-choice blocks, without giving it much consideration. This study aims to test this assumption empirically on the MUPP-2PL model, comparing the parameter estimates of the forced-choice format to their graded-scale equivalent on a Big Five personality instrument. The assumption was found to hold reasonably well, especially for the discrimination parameters. In the cases in which it was violated, we briefly discuss the …
Method Effects and Gender Invariance of the Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale: A Study on Adolescents
2015
AbstractRosenberg's self-esteem scale has been extensively used in all areas of psychology to assess global self-esteem (Rosenberg, 1965, 1979). Its construct validity, and specifically its factor structure, has almost from the beginning been under debate. More than four decades after its creation the cumulated evidence points that the scale measures a single trait (self-esteem) but confounded by a method factor associated to negatively worded items. The aim of the study is to examine the measurement invariance of the RSES by gender and test potential gender differences at the latent (trait and method) variable level, while controlling for method effects, in a sample of Spanish students. A …

Analisi economica degli interventi distribuiti di gestione dei deflussi urbani
2011
L’applicazione degli interventi distribuiti di gestione dei deflussi urbani è stata effettuata finora in maniera piuttosto disomogenea in Europa ed in particolare in Italia, probabilmente anche in seguito alle difficoltà legate alla valutazione dell'efficienza idraulica ed economica di tali interventi. Obiettivo del presente lavoro è quello di analizzare l’aspetto economico di alcune BMP per quanto riguarda sia i costi di realizzazione sia quelli di manutenzione, nell’ottica della valutazione dell'efficienza delle BMP e delle problematiche relative alla implementazione di sistemi di drenaggio nel contesto della pianificazione territoriale. Attraverso la classificazione, la descrizione e l’a…
Nuevos acercamientos metodológicos al estudio de la violencia de género
2019
La violencia de género es un problema social y de salud pública de proporciones globales. Es la forma de violencia más frecuente que sufren las mujeres y tiene importantes consecuencias para el bienestar físico y psicológico no sólo de las víctimas, sino también para sus hijos. Para una adecuada comprensión de este fenómeno, resulta de vital importancia abordar su estudio aplicando herramientas y metodologías robustas, apropiadas y actualizadas. Y es precisamente en este contexto en el que se enmarca la presente tesis doctoral, donde se tratan dos problemas de medición relacionados con la violencia de género: la comparabilidad de las medidas de diferentes formas de esta violencia en una gra…
Psychometric properties of the «Spanish Burnout Inventory» (SBI) in a sample of Italian health professionals: a gender perspective
2017
El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar las propiedades psicométricas del Cuestionario para la Evaluación del Síndrome de Quemarse por el Trabajo (CESQT) en una muestra de profesionales de la salud italianos. La muestra estuvo formada por 695 participantes (453 profesionales de enfermería y 242 médicos). Según el género se identificaron 451 mujeres (64.9%) y 244 hombres (35.1%). El CESQT está formado por 20 ítems que se distribuyen en cuatro dimensiones: Ilusión por el trabajo (5 ítems), Desgaste psíquico (4 ítems), Indolencia (6 ítems), y Culpa (5 ítems). La estructura factorial se analizó mediante análisis factorial confirmatorio. Todos los ítems presentaron valores adecuados para los pa…
