Resumen

Introducción. La vergüenza externa se ha vinculado a problemáticas psicosociales diversas y la escala de los otros como generadores de vergüenza (OAS) es un instrumento frecuentemente utilizado para medir este constructo.

Objetivo. Evaluar las propiedades psicométricas de la OAS en una muestra de población general y una muestra de población con síntomas asociados al Trastorno de Estrés Postraumático Complejo (TEPT-C).

Método. 341 participantes respondieron la OAS y el Cuestionario Internacional de Trauma (ITQ). Para obtener evidencia sobre la validez de constructo de la escala, se realizó un análisis factorial confirmatorio (AFC).

Resultados. Se encontró un ajuste adecuado del modelo, así como una validez concurrente y discriminativa adecuada en relación con los puntajes del ITQ.

Discusión y conclusión. Los resultados sugieren que el OAS es un instrumento válido y confiable para medir vergüenza externa y discriminar entre personas con y sin sintomatología postraumática.
