| description | The aim of this study was to establish the psychomet-ric properties of the Bell Adjustment Inventory for adoles-cents (Bell, 1934), an instrument that aims to operationalize the degree of adaptation in adolescents in different relevant areas of their development. The study was conducted on a sample of 569 adolescents between 12 and 18 years old re-siding in the city of Bogota, Colombia. The results showed evidence of construct validity through a factor analysis by keeping its structure of four adjustment dimensions that correspond with family, health, social and emotional. The internal consistency of each dimension was evaluated by calculating the Cronbach alphas. Also, differences depend-ing on sex and age were studied. The results indicated a proper psychometric functioning of the instrument and ev-idences of construct validity were obtained as well as evi-dences of good internal consistency. |

El presente trabajo tuvo como objetivo establecer las propiedades psicométricas del Cuestionario de Adaptación para Adolescentes de Bell (Bell Adjustment Inventory; 1934), cuyo fin es operacionalizar el grado de adaptación en áreas relevantes del desarrollo adolescente. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 569 adolescentes entre 12 y 18 años residentes en la ciudad de Bogotá, Colombia. Se obtuvieron evidencias de validez de constructo por medio de un análisis factorial, cuyos resultados sugirieron mantener la estructura de cuatro dimensiones de adaptación: familiar, de salud, social y emocional. Se evaluó la consistencia interna de cada dimensión calculando los coeficientes alfa de Cronbach. Además, se estudiaron diferencias según sexo y edad. Los resultados obtenidos en cuanto a validez de constructo y consistencia interna son favorables e indican un buen funcionamiento psicométrico del instrumento. Facultad de Psicología.
