description Phubbing is a behavior of great relevance, yet scarcely studied in Argentina. The present study validated a questionnaire in this regard in a sample of Argentine adolescents and emerging adults/young adults. An intentional sample of 1245 participants from the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires and Paraná, Argentina, aged 12 to 40 years, with 70% of women was constituted. Participants answered the Karadağ et al. (2015) Questionnaire on Phubbing and the Furman and Buhrmester (1992) Inventory of Conflict-Antagonism with parents (fathers and mothers). The results of exploratory factor analysis indicated an adequate structure of three factors. Confirmatory factor analysis showed a satisfactory adjustment. Internal reliability was adequate with certain reservations for some factors. Construct validity evidence was also found, as indicated by the association of phubbing with age and conflict-antagonism with parents.

El phubbing es una conducta de gran actualidad escasamente estudiada en la Argentina. La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo adaptar un cuestionario a este respecto en una muestra de adolescentes y adultos emergentes/jóvenes argentinos. Se constituyó una muestra intencional de 1245 participantes de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires y Paraná, Argentina (edades de 15 a 40 años, 70% mujeres). Los participantes contestaron la Escala de Phubbing de Karadağ et al. (2015) y la Subescala de Conflicto-Antagonismo con progenitores (padres y madres) del Inventario de Furman y Buhrmester (1992). Los resultados de un análisis paralelo indicaron una estructura adecuada de tres factores. Un análisis factorial confirmatorio mostró un ajuste satisfactorio para dicho modelo. La confiabilidad interna se consideró adecuada con ciertas reservas para algunos de sus factores. Se encontraron evidencias de validez de constructo para la escala: la asociación del phubbing con la edad y con el conflicto-antagonismo con progenitores. Facultad de Psicología.
