En este estudio se realiza la adaptación y validación del Obsessive Belief Questionnaire-Children Version (OBQ-CV) en una muestra no clínica de niños y adolescentes españoles. Los análisis factoriales confirmatorios revelaron que el modelo que mejor se ajusta a los datos es el de tres factores de primer orden (Responsabilidad/Estimación de la amenaza, Perfeccionismo/Incertidumbre, Importancia/Control del pensamiento) que, a su vez, constituyen un factor de segundo orden. Los resultados mostraron que las puntuaciones del OBQ-CV presentan una alta fiabilidad, así como adecuada validez de criterio con medidas de síntomas obsesivo-compulsivos y de creencias obsesivas, y una buena validez discriminante con medidas de depresión y ansiedad.

Psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the Obsessive Belief Questionnaire-Children’s Version in a non-clinical sample. The aim of this study was the adaptation to Spanish of the Obsessive Belief Questionnaire-Children’s Version (OBQ-CV) in a non-clinical sample. Confirmatory factor analyses revealed the best fit for a model of three factors (Perfectionism/Certainty, Importance/Control of Thoughts, and Responsibility/Threat Estimation) and one higher-order factor. Moreover, results showed that the Spanish OBQ-CV is a reliable measure. This version also showed good criterion validity with obsessive-compulsive symptom measures and with scores of beliefs relevant to obsessive-compulsive disorder. Lastly, this version showed good divergent validity with depression and anxiety measures.
