RESUMEN
La "Escala de intolerancia a la frustración" (EIF; Harrington, 2005) permite evaluar una serie de creencias que promueven la intolerancia a las molestias, el esfuerzo, la injusticia y las emociones incómodas. A pesar de la importancia de este instrumento, no existe una versión en español de la EIF. En este trabajo se evaluó la equivalencia de una traducción de la EIF mediante un panel de expertos. Posteriormente, mediante análisis factorial confirmatorio (n= 799) se concluyó que la EIF posee una estructura multidimensional de cuatro factores Intolerancia emocional, Derecho, Intolerancia a la incomodidad y Logro. Sin embargo, debieron eliminarse 11 ítems, lo cual afectó la consistencia interna de algunas dimensiones. También se examinó la invarianza del instrumento considerando la edad, sexo y nivel educativo de los participantes, obteniéndose pruebas de validez de criterio correlacionando la EIF con los niveles de autoestima. Los resultados psicométricos fueron aceptables, aunque se identificaron algunas limitaciones a considerar antes de utilizar a nivel profesional. Este trabajo inaugura futuros estudios sobre IF en países de habla española
ABSTRACT
The Intolerance to Frustration Scale (IFS, Harrington, 2005) assesses a series of beliefs that promote intolerance to annoyance, exertion, injustice and uncomfortable emotions. Despite the importance of this instrument, there is no Spanish version of the IFS. In this work, the equivalence of a translation from thecIFS was assessed by a panel of experts. Subsequently, by means of confirmatory factorial analysis (n= 799) it was concluded that the IFS has a multidimensional structure of four factors Emotional Intolerance, Right, Intolerance to Discomfort and Achievement. However, 11 items had to be removed, which affected the internal consistency of some dimensions. The invariance of the instrument was also examined considering the age, sex and educational level of the participants, and evidence of validity as obtained by correlating the IFS with self-esteem levels. Psychometric results were acceptable, although some limitations should be addressed before the scale is used professionally in Spanish-speaking countries
