description Empathy is an affective response that allows establishing healthy relationships, generating a better coexistence between individuals, therefore, it is important to have valid and reliable instruments to measure that construct. The main goal of the present research was the adaptation and translation of an empathy scale for children. The scale has 28 items, it was applied to 293 children between 8 and 12 years old in Mexico City. Results showed a Cronbach's alpha of .753 on the overall scale, leaving 10 items. The validity of the construct was confirmed through the exploratory factorial analysis of principal components with varimax rotation, from that analysis three factors were obtained that explain 36.86% of variance. A confirmatory factorial analysis was also carried out, showing good indexes of adjustment of the model.

El objetivo del presente trabajo fue la adaptación y traducción de una escala de empatía para niños. La escala cuenta con 28 reactivos, se aplicó a 293 niños de entre 8 y 12 años en la Ciudad de México. Los resultados mostraron un alfa de Cronbach de .753 en la escala total, quedando de 10 reactivos. Se confirmó la validez de constructo, a través del análisis factorial exploratorio de componentes principales con rotación varimax, del cual se obtuvieron tres factores que explican 36.86% de varianza, a su vez se realizó un análisis factorial confirmatorio mostrando buenos índices de ajuste del modelo.Universidad Católica del Uruguay2019-10-012025-12-22T16:34:24Z2025-12-22T16:34:24Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ucu.edu.uy/index.php/cienciaspsicologicas/article/view/187810.22235/cp.v13i2.1878https://hdl.handle.net/10895/5447Ciencias Psicológicas; 2019, Volume 13 (2); 223-234Ciencias Psicológicas; 2019, Volumen 13 (2); 223-234Ciencias Psicológicas; 2019, Volume 13 (2); 223-2341688-422110.22235/cp.v13i2reponame:LIBERIinstname:Universidad Católica del Uruguayinstacron:Universidad Católica del Uruguayspahttps://revistas.ucu.edu.uy/index.php/cienciaspsicologicas/article/view/1878/1848https://revistas.ucu.edu.uy/index.php/cienciaspsicologicas/article/view/1878/1850Derechos de autor 2019 Universidad Católica del Uruguayinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:liberi.ucu.edu.uy:10895/54472026-06-16T06:51:28Z
