Resumen

La acumulación de Sucesos Vitales Estresantes (SVE) supone un factor de riesgo para la salud mental en la infancia, sin embargo, no contamos con un cuestionario en español validado en la segunda infancia. Este estudio presenta el desarrollo y la validación de una nueva escala (SVE-I) de autoinforme para evaluar la acumulación de SVE en menores de 8 a 12 años españoles. Un panel de expertas participó en la evaluación de la adecuación de la escala. Se realizaron comprobaciones en un grupo focal para asegurar la aceptabilidad y comprensión de los ítems. 504 menores de cuatro centros escolares de Madrid (Medad = 10.1; DTedad = 1.28; 56.5 % chicos) participaron en el estudio, completando la batería de cuestionarios. El análisis factorial confirmatorio mostró una estructura de tres factores (estrés familiar, estrés socio-escolar y salud), con una consistencia interna de la escala global adecuada (αordinal = .83). Para la evidencia de validez concurrente, se encontró una asociación positiva entre la acumulación de SVE y la sintomatología ansiosa de los menores. Los resultados indican que la SVE-I es un instrumento válido y fiable. Esta escala pretende ser una herramienta sencilla y útil para el cribado de casos en riesgo desde la escuela y Atención Primaria.
