The Perception of Anomie Scale (PAS) is a measure used to evaluate the state of society and whether it is disintegrated and deregulated. Although widely used, the psychometric properties of reliability, validity, and measurement invariance according to sex have not been studied in the Chilean university population. To explore these properties, a cross-sectional study was carried out with 383 students from public (45.7%) and private (54.3%) universities, with a mean age of 21.5 years (SD = 3.3). A CFA and ESEM were performed, which confirmed the two-factor correlated structure, achieving better goodness-of-fit indices by eliminating five items (RMSEA = 0.09; CFI = 0.98; TLI = 0.95). This also provided evidence of reliability and measurement invariance according to sex. This study provides evidence of the psychometric quality of the PAS scale, thus allowing its use in the Chilean university context.
失范感量表（PAS）是一种用于评估社会状态以及社会是否瓦解和失控的测量工具。尽管该量表被广泛使用，但在智利大学人群中，尚未对其信度、效度以及根据性别划分的测量不变性等心理测量特性进行研究。为了探究这些特性，我们对来自公立大学（45.7%）和私立大学（54.3%）的383名学生开展了一项横断面研究，这些学生的平均年龄为21.5岁（标准差=3.3）。我们进行了验证性因素分析（CFA）和探索性结构方程模型（ESEM），结果证实了两因素相关结构，通过剔除五个项目，获得了更好的拟合优度指标（均方根误差近似值=0.09；比较拟合指数=0.98；塔克-刘易斯指数=0.95）。这也为按性别划分的信度和测量不变性提供了证据。本研究为PAS量表的心理测量质量提供了证据，从而使其能够在智利大学环境中使用。
