The purpose of this research was to examine the psychometric properties of a Spanish translation of the Flow State Scale (FSS; Jackson & Marsh, 1996). This instrument is used to assess the Flow State in participants of physical activity, although it can be adapted to other contexts (such as work, educational contexts, etc.). This construct can be considered the optimal psychological state to carry out an activity, being closely related to motivation and personal enjoyment (Csikszentmihalyi, 1997). A sample of 2036 athletes was recruited from diverse sports activities. The results revealed satisfactory validity and internal consistency of the instrument, obtaining a factor model made up of a main factor and nine subscales. The correlations between motivational orientations and the flow state are highlighted. The Spanish translation of this instrument is found to be acceptable, with similar psychometric properties as the original scale, although future research in other contexts is needed to support these outcomes.
本研究的目的是检验心流状态量表（FSS；Jackson & Marsh，1996）西班牙语翻译版的心理测量特性。该工具用于评估体育活动参与者的心流状态，不过它也可适用于其他情境（如工作、教育情境等）。这种构念可被视为开展一项活动的最佳心理状态，与动机和个人享受密切相关（Csikszentmihalyi，1997）。从各种体育活动中招募了2036名运动员作为样本。结果显示该工具具有令人满意的效度和内部一致性，得到了一个由一个主因素和九个分量表组成的因素模型。研究突出了动机取向与心流状态之间的相关性。该工具的西班牙语翻译版被认为是可接受的，其心理测量特性与原始量表相似，不过需要在其他情境中开展进一步研究以支持这些结果。
