| description | The aim of this article is to introduce the validation of a screening tool: the Psychomotor Inhibition Signs Questionnaire (SIP; Saal, 2019). A total of 675 children aged 5 to 10 years attending the three first years of elementary schools of the metropolitan area of Buenos Aires took part in the study. A bidimensional structure: inhibition and obedience, was obtained by exploratory factor analysis. Internal consistency was adequate for both dimensions: inhibition, α = .92; obedience, α = .80. Even if both factors are conceptually relevant, the first factor’s score was found to be a better screening measure for psychomotor inhibition. Cut-off point was established at 35.5 where high levels of sensitivity (.78) and specificity (.72) were obtained. The area under the ROC curve was .79 (p < .001). In sum, these results suggest that this tool is valid and reliable for screening psychomotor inhibition. |

El objetivo de este trabajo es presentar la validación de un instrumento de despistaje: el Cuestionario de Signos observables asociados a la Inhibición Psicomotriz (SIP; Saal, 2019). Participaron 675 niños de entre 5 y 10 años que asistían al primer ciclo de escuelas primarias del Área Metropolitana de Buenos Aires. El análisis factorial exploratorio reveló una estructura bidimensional: inhibición y obediencia. Ambas dimensiones presentan una buena consistencia interna: inhibición, α = .92; obediencia, α = .80. Si bien ambos factores son conceptualmente relevantes, el puntaje del primer factor se presentó como mejor medida para el rastrillaje de la inhibición psicomotriz en niños de primer ciclo. Tuvo un punto de corte de 35.5 que ofrece la mejor combinación de sensibilidad (.78) y especificidad (.72). El área bajo la curva ROC fue de .79 (p < .001). En conclusión, el SIP presenta adecuados indicadores de validez y confiabilidad para su uso como instrumento de despistaje.
