Adaptation of the ESPA29 Parental Socialization Styles Scale to the Basque Language: Evidence of Validity

Abstract

The aim of this study is to adapt the ESPA29 scale of parental socialization styles in adolescence to the Basque language. The study of its psychometric properties is based on the search for evidence of internal and external validity. The first focuses on the assessment of the dimensionality of the scale by means of exploratory factor analysis. The relationship between the dimensions of parental socialization styles and gender and age guarantee the external validity of the scale. The study of the equivalence of the adapted and original versions is based on the comparisons of the reliability coefficients and on factor congruence. The results allow us to conclude the equivalence of the two scales.El objetivo de este trabajo es adaptar al euskera la escala de estilos de socialización parental ESPA29. El estudio de sus propiedades psicométricas descansa en la búsqueda de evidencias internas y externas de validez. Las primeras se centran en la evaluación de la dimensionalidad de la escala a través de un análisis factorial exploratorio. La relación entre las distintas dimensiones de la socialización y las variables sexo y edad garantizan la validez externa de la escala. El estudio de equivalencia entre las versiones original y adaptada se apoya en la comparación entre los coeficientes de fiabilidad y de la congruencia factorial. Los resultados permiten concluir la equivalencia entre las dos escalas.

“…At the same time, variations were observed in the same sense described in previous research, in the criteria with both socio demographic variables analyzed, like sex (Aunola et al, 2000;López-Jáuregui & Oliden, 2009) and age (Martínez et al, 2011;Martínez et al, 2012). It was found significant differences between males and females in emotional and physical self-esteem (García & Gracia, 2009.…”

“…The factor structure of this instrument had been confirmed in several studies using exploratory factor analysis in samples of Spain (Cerrato, Sallent, Aznar, Pérez, & Carrasco, 2011;Garcia & Musitu, 1999;López-Jáuregui & Oliden, 2009), Brazil (Martínez et al, 2003), and Italy (Marchetti, 1997), and confirmatory factor analysis in samples of Spain (Elosua & Muñiz, 2010;Fuentes et al, 2011aFuentes et al, , 2011bMurgui, García, García, & García, 2012;Tomás & Oliver, 2004), Portugal and Chile (García, Musitu, Riquelme, & Riquelme, 2011). It was not found method effects associated with negatively worded items Tomas & Oliver, 2004).…”

No se encontraron efectos de método asociados con los ítems invertidos Tomás y Oliver, 2004).…”

“…On the other hand, adolescents from indulgent families, characterized by acceptance/involvement but not strictness/imposition, showed high self-reliance and self-competence, but also showed higher levels of substance abuse and school problems Radziszewska, Richardson, Dent, & Flay, 1996). These patterns did not vary neither as a function of adolescents' age or sex (Aunola et al 2000;Barton & Kirtley, 2012;López-Jáuregui & Oliden, 2009), nor as a function of parents' sex (Kazemi, Ardabili, & Solokian, 2010;Martínez, García, Camino, & Camino, 2011;Martínez, García, Musitu, & Yubero, 2012).…”
