Currently, there is a growing need to assess social skills in young university students since the use and application of these scales can provide benefits in different situations, such as work, education, clinical and psychological. The objective of the study was to verify the validity and reliability of a social skills scale (SS) for students from three professional health sciences programs in Chile. This information will provide understanding and development of SS among health care team members and between them and patients. A cross-sectional study was designed with 185 Chilean university students (141 males and 44 females). Students were recruited voluntarily from a private university in Chile. Ages ranged from 18 to 30 years old. Goldstein's SS scale (consisting of six dimensions with a total of 50 questions) was used. It was administered virtually. Validity was verified by means of confirmatory factor analysis and reliability through internal consistency. The factor structure of the model confirmed the 50 questions and six dimensions of the scale. In general, the model reflected satisfactory values. Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin's (KMO) test for the adequacy (suitability) of the sample was 0.834, chi squared X2= 4344.8 (gl= 1425, p< 0.000). The comparative fit index (CFI) was 0.45, goodness of fit index (GFI) was 0.56, the root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) was 0.091, and the % of variance 54%. The communalities reflected values from 0.31 to 0.76. In addition, Cronbach's Alpha values varied from 0.72 to 0.75. In its totality, the scale demonstrated a reliability of 0.75. The SS scale is valid and reliable. It can be used with students from nursing, kinesiology, and speech therapy programs. The results suggest the use and application of the scale with professionals working in higher education.
目前，评估青年大学生社交技能的需求日益增长，因为这些量表的使用和应用能在不同情境中带来益处，如工作、教育、临床和心理方面。本研究的目的是验证智利三个专业健康科学项目学生社交技能量表（SS）的有效性和可靠性。这些信息将有助于理解和提升医疗团队成员之间以及他们与患者之间的社交技能。本研究设计为横断面研究，纳入了185名智利大学生（141名男性和44名女性）。学生们是从智利一所私立大学自愿招募的。年龄范围在18至30岁之间。使用了戈尔茨坦社交技能量表（由六个维度共50个问题组成）。该量表通过线上方式进行施测。通过验证性因素分析验证有效性，通过内部一致性验证可靠性。模型的因素结构证实了量表的50个问题和六个维度。总体而言，模型反映出令人满意的值。样本充足性的凯泽 - 迈耶 - 奥尔金（KMO）检验值为0.834，卡方值X2 = 4344.8（自由度gl = 1425，p < 0.000）。比较拟合指数（CFI）为0.45，拟合优度指数（GFI）为0.56，近似误差均方根（RMSEA）为0.091，方差百分比为54%。共同度反映的值在0.31至0.76之间。此外，克朗巴哈α值在0.72至0.75之间。总体而言，该量表的可靠性为0.75。社交技能量表是有效且可靠的。它可用于护理、运动机能学和言语治疗项目的学生。研究结果表明该量表可用于高等教育领域的专业人员。
