Psychometric properties of the BPNES adapted to Physical Education in Argentina, Spain and Colombia

The main goal of this study was to examine the ex-tent to which psychometric properties from the Basic Psy-chological Needs in Exercise Scale (BPNES) are invariant across samples of Argentine, Spanish and Colombian phys-ical education students. The questionnaire was distributed to 1153 students (44....

description The main goal of this study was to examine the ex-tent to which psychometric properties from the Basic Psy-chological Needs in Exercise Scale (BPNES) are invariant across samples of Argentine, Spanish and Colombian phys-ical education students. The questionnaire was distributed to 1153 students (44.6% male) from ages 13 to 16 (M = 14.68; SD = 1.09). Confirmatory factor analyses carried out in independent samples revealed suitable psychometric properties in the three samples. Multi-sample confirmatory factor analyses showed that factor structure, factor load-ings and intercepts can be considered invariant across the groups. However, residual variances were found to be dif-ferent across some of the samples. Findings are discussed in terms of internal consistency and differences observed be-tween the three samples. Findings support valid cross-cul-tural comparisons using BPNES.

El objetivo del presente trabajo fue examinar la medida en que las propiedades psicométricas de la Escala de Satisfacción de las Necesidades Psicológicas Básicas (BPNES) resultan estables en muestras de estudiantes de educación física de Argentina, España y Colombia. Participaron 1153 estudiantes de educación física (44.6% varones) de edades comprendidas entre 13 y 16 años (M = 14.68; DE = 1.09). Los análisis factoriales en muestras independientes revelaron adecuadas propiedades psicométricas del instrumento en los tres países. Los análisis multigrupo posteriores demostraron que la estructura factorial, las cargas factoriales y los interceptos eran invariantes entre los grupos. Sin embargo, se encontraron diferencias entre las varianzas residuales. Se discuten los resultados con base en los hallazgos relativos a la consistencia interna de las dimensiones del instrumento y las diferencias observadas entre las tres muestras. Los hallazgos de este trabajo respaldan posteriores comparaciones interculturales mediante el uso de la BPNES.
