| Sumario: | Objective: to construct and evaluate the psychometric properties of an instrument that assesses coupledynamics within a relationship of young people between the ages of 18 and 30 years. Methodology:After carrying out a strict theoretical review and having defined the construct, the Youth ViolenceQuestionnaire with 29 items was prepared, with its 5 factors: factor 1 Physical Violence (10 items),factor 2 Manipulation (5 items ), factor 3 Verbal Violence (6 items), factor 4 Coercion (3 items); finally,the factor 5 Prohibitions (5 items); with a type of dichotomous response and Likert of five points. It wasadministered to 355 young residents of Lima-Este. The construct validity was evaluated by means ofthe Exploratory Factor Analysis, using the method of parallel components with oblimin rotation and theKaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) normalization. Results: a KMO of .937 was obtained, with a significanceof .001; The rotation indicated that five factors are adequately adjusted, with factor weights within therange of .350 to .623, which represents 53.5% of the variance. Likewise, a Cronbach’s alpha of .943and a McDonald’s omega .947 were obtained on the global scale; likewise, the items show Cronbachcoefficients that vary between .940 to .942 and McDonald’s .944 to .946, indicating high reliability.Conclusion: the instrument shows good internal consistency and construct validity. |
