description The aim of this investigation was to perform a literary review describing the methodology used in factorial studies of the Ryff’s Psychological Well-Being Scales – Spanish Version (PWBS-E; Diaz et al., 2006). A direct search of digital databases for instrumental studies that analyze the PWBS-E identified nine papers providing relevant information. As for studies using confirmatory factor analysis, differences regarding software and estimation methods were observed, but the majority of them does not indicate which type of correlation matrix was used. Likewise, there is little reported on inter-factor correlations and factor loadings, and the fit indices are lower than the acceptable boundaries. Two out of three exploratory factor analysis studies use the principal components analysis and varimax rotation, while only one reports factor loadings. In general, the use of the PWBS-E total score is not justified. The study concludes about the lack of clarity of the PWBS-E internal structure.

El objetivo de esta investigación fue realizar una revisión de la literatura para describir la metodología utilizada en estudios factoriales de la versión en español de la Escala de Bienestar Psicológico de Ryff (PWBS-E; Diaz et al., 2006). Se efectuó una búsqueda directa en bases de datos de estudios instrumentales que analizan la PWBS-E y se encontraron nueve artículos con información relevante. En cuanto a los estudios que emplean análisis factorial confirmatorio, se observaron diferencias respecto al software utilizado y a los métodos de estimación, pero la mayoría no indica el tipo de matriz de correlaciones utilizada. Del mismo modo, el grado en que se informan correlaciones interfactoriales y cargas factoriales es bajo y, en promedio, los índices de ajuste son menores a los límites aceptables. Dos de los tres estudios bajo un enfoque exploratorio destacan por el uso de análisis de componentes principales y rotación varimax, mientras que solo uno informa las cargas factoriales. De acuerdo a los resultados obtenidos, el uso de la puntuación total de la PWBS-E no está justificado. Se concluye que hay una falta de claridad con respecto a la estructura interna de la PWBS-E.
