Angeles Luengo Jose Antonio Gomez-Fraguela Psicología dimensionality gender differences Antisocial behavior factorial structure This study aimed at evaluating the internal consistency of the Antisocial Behavior Questionnaire and analyze its factor structure. Specifically, it sought to evaluate the suitability of one-factor and multifactorial models, and to verify the extent to which scores of antisocial behavior vary according to gender. We counted with two different samples of school adolescents. They answered, among other measures, the Antisocial Behavior Questionnaire and demographic questions. The results indicated that the multidimensional model composed of five independent factors was more suitable than the one-factor model as well as the model with five factors of first order and a higher order factor. The male participants had higher scores on aggression, theft, conduct against the rules and vandalism. No significant differences were found for problems with drug abuse. We conclude, therefore, that the antisocial behavior is adequately represented by a multidimensional structure comprising acts of different types and gravities, and that these are more likely in males than females. 2019 artículo científico 1794-4724 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=79957990003 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/799/79957990003/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/799/79957990003/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/799/79957990003/79957990003.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/799/79957990003/movil https://doi.org/10.12804/revistas.urosario.edu.co/apl/a.5105 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=799 Avances en Psicología Latinoamericana application/pdf Universidad del Rosario Avances en Psicología Latinoamericana (Colombia) Num.1 Vol.37 |
