There is a gap in the available Spanish-language instruments that specifically measure the behaviors or tactics used by parents in conflict or hostile situations with their children. The main objective of this study was to translate, adapt, and validate the Conflict Tactics Scale: Parent to Child (CTSPC) within the Spanish context, evaluating its psychometric properties, including exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and internal consistency.
A sample of 700 parents (350 women and 350 men) aged between 18 and 69 years was used.
The Spanish version of the CTSPC consists of 21 items distributed across 3 dimensions: Non-Violent Discipline ( = 0.71), Coercive Discipline (α = 0.81), and Physical Aggression (α = 0.93). The findings indicated that 14.14% of participants reported having used physically aggressive behaviors toward their children at least once in their lifetime.
This instrument emerges as a valuable tool for identifying inappropriate tactics and behaviors employed by parents toward their children, contributing to the prevention of child maltreatment and raising parental awareness about how to educate children without resorting to violence.
现有的西班牙语工具在专门测量父母在与孩子发生冲突或敌对情况下所使用的行为或策略方面存在空白。本研究的主要目的是在西班牙语环境中翻译、改编并验证《冲突策略量表：父母对子女》（CTSPC），评估其心理测量特性，包括探索性因素分析、验证性因素分析和内部一致性。
使用了一个由700名年龄在18至69岁之间的父母（350名女性和350名男性）组成的样本。
CTSPC的西班牙语版本由21个项目组成，分布在3个维度上：非暴力管教（α = 0.71）、强制管教（α = 0.81）和身体攻击（α = 0.93）。研究结果表明，14.14%的参与者报告称在其一生中至少有一次对自己的孩子使用过身体攻击行为。
该工具成为识别父母对子女使用的不当策略和行为的宝贵工具，有助于预防儿童虐待，并提高父母对如何在不诉诸暴力的情况下教育孩子的认识。
