description The aim of the present study was to analyze the psychometric characteristics of the Experiences in Close Relationships-Revised (ECR-R) scale in young Ecuadorian adults. The participants were 641 university students from 20 to 25 years old, from two institutions in the city of Quito, to whom the test was applied. Using the Confirmatory Factor Analysis technique, it was verified that the results found were in accordance with the Peruvian ECR-R model. Therefore, the Ecuadorian version was made up of the 27 items of the Peruvian version, which correspond to the two original dimensions of the scale: Anxiety and Avoidance, the latter dimension consisting of two factors, one of direct items and the other of inverse items. An adequate reliability of the factors of Anxiety (α = .91; ω = .91), Inverse avoidance (α = .90; ω = .89) and Direct avoidance (α = .72; ω = .83) was found.

El objetivo del presente estudio fue analizar las características psicométricas de la escala Experiences in Close Relationships-Revised (ECR-R) en jóvenes adultos ecuatorianos. Los participantes fueron 641 estudiantes universitarios de 20 a 25 años, provenientes de dos instituciones de educación superior de Quito, a quienes se les aplicó la prueba. Mediante la técnica de Análisis Factorial Confirmatorio se verificó que los resultados encontrados se ajustaban al modelo peruano del ECR-R. Por tanto, la versión ecuatoriana quedó conformada por los 27 ítems de la versión peruana, los cuales corresponden a las dos dimensiones originales de la escala: Ansiedad y Evitación, esta última constituida por dos factores, uno de ítems directos y otro de ítems inversos. Se encontró una confiabilidad adecuada de los factores de Ansiedad (α = .91; ω = .91), Evitación inversa (α = .90; ω = .89) y Evitación directa (α = .72; ω = .83).
