The aim of this study was to determine the psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the SOC-13 in Colombian adults. The SOC-13 questionnaire was administered to 489 individuals aged ≥18 years who were in lockdown from March to July 2020 in Nariño County, Colombia. Psychometric properties of the scale were examined using a cross-validation method via exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Additionally, configural and metric invariance were tested. To determine the internal consistency of the questionnaire, McDonald's omega (ω), Cronbach's alpha (α), and composite reliability (CR) coefficients were estimated. The EFA determined that a three-factor structure best fit the data (comprehensibility, manageability, and meaningfulness) and CFA confirmed this three-factor model structure showing a good fit ( = 188.530, /(62) = 3.615, = 0.001; = 0.959; = 0.968; = 0.052 (90% CI [0.041-0.063]) and = 0.052).The invariance analysis indicated the same underlying theoretical structure between genders. Additionally, (ω), (α), and (CR) coefficients confirmed a high internal consistency of the instrument. The SOC-13 scale, reflecting comprehensibility, manageability, and meaningfulness, is a reliable and valid tool for assessing the sense of coherence in Colombian populations.
本研究旨在确定 SOC-13 西班牙语版在哥伦比亚成年人中的心理测量特性。该问卷对 2020 年 3 月至 7 月哥伦比亚纳里尼奥县被封锁的 489 名年龄≥18 岁的个体进行了调查。通过探索性因素分析（EFA）和验证性因素分析（CFA）对量表的心理测量特性进行了交叉验证。此外，还测试了结构和度量不变性。为了确定问卷的内部一致性，估计了 McDonald's omega（ω）、Cronbach's alpha（α）和综合可靠性（CR）系数。EFA 确定三因素结构最适合数据（可理解性、可管理性和有意义性），CFA 证实了该三因素模型结构具有良好的拟合度（=188.530，/(62)=3.615，=0.001；=0.959；=0.968；=0.052（90%CI [0.041-0.063]）和=0.052）。不变性分析表明，性别之间存在相同的潜在理论结构。此外，（ω）、（α）和（CR）系数证实了该工具具有较高的内部一致性。SOC-13 量表反映了可理解性、可管理性和有意义性，是评估哥伦比亚人群凝聚力的可靠有效的工具。
