Abstract
El objetivo del trabajo fue analizar las propiedades psicométricas de la Escala de Satisfacción Familiar de Olson (2010). La satisfacción familiar ha sido evaluada por clínicos e investigadores, en particular en vinculación con el Modelo Circumplejo de los Sistemas Maritales y Familiares. Sin embargo, son escasos los estudios de adaptación de la técnica en el idioma español. Partiendo del proceso de traducción y datos preliminares de fiabilidad, se realizó un estudio de tipo instrumental con una muestra de 385 familias de población general, con el objetivo de obtener evidencias de validez y fiabilidad de la escala. Los resultados del análisis factorial confirmatorio muestran ajuste razonable de los datos a una estructura unidimensional, con un índice de fiabilidad alto. Los análisis de validez externa se realizaron con el resto de las escalas FACES IV, con resultados esperables según el modelo teórico. Para obtener datos de validez de criterio, se comparó los resultados obtenidos por una muestra clínica (N = 77) con una submuestra equivalente de los participantes, hallando diferencias significativas entre los dos grupos. Se concluye que la Escala de Satisfacción Familiar es un instrumento válido y fiable para la evaluación de la satisfacción en familias uruguayas.
The aim of the present study was to analyze the psychometric properties of the Family Satisfaction Scale (Olson, 2010). Family satisfaction has been evaluated by clinicians and researchers, particularly in relation to the Circumplex Model of Marital and Family Systems. Despite its widespread use, there are few adaptations to Spanish. Based on the translation process and preliminary reliability data, an instrumental study was conducted with a sample of 385 families from the general population, with the aim of obtaining evidence supporting the validity and reliability of the scale. The results of the confirmatory factor analysis show a moderate fit of the data to a one-dimensional structure, with a high reliability index. The external validity analyzes were performed with the rest of the FACES IV scales, with expected results according to the theoretical model. To obtain criterion validity data, we compared the results obtained in a clinical sample (N = 77) with an equivalent subsample of the participants, finding significant differences between the two groups. It is concluded that the Family Satisfaction Scale is a valid and reliable instrument for the assessment of satisfaction in Uruguayan families.
