RESUMEN
Se evalúan las propiedades psicométricas de la versión adaptada para Chile del Child Health and Illness Profile - Adolescent Edition (CHIP-AE) en una muestra de 527 adolescentes escolarizados de instituciones públicas y privadas. Se analizó la consistencia interna como la estructura factorial de la escala, así como su capacidad para discriminar entre grupos. Los hallazgos confirman la estructura factorial de la versión original. La consistencia interna de las dimensiones osciló entre .83 y .89. El instrumento es capaz de discriminar entre rangos de edad y entre sujetos sanos y no sanos. La evidencia permite proponer al instrumento como una medida de evaluación fiable en salud pública para medir el estado de salud de la población adolescente en diversos dominios.
ABSTRACT
We evaluated the psychometric properties of the adapted version for Chile of Child Health and Illness Profile - Adolescent Edition (CHIP-AE) in a sample of 527 adolescents from public and private institutions. Internal consistency, seen as a factorial structure of the scale, and its ability to distinguish the groups were assessed. The findings confirmed the factorial structure of the original version. Internal consistency of the dimensions ranged between .83 and .89. The instrument is able to discriminate between age groups and between healthy and unhealthy individuals. Evidence allows proposing this instrument as a reliable measurement of public health assessment to measure adolescent's health in several domains.
