RESUMEN
El objetivo fue conocer la confiablidad y la dimensionalidad del AUDIT (Cuestionario de Identificación de los Trastornos debidos al Consumo de Alcohol) (Saunders, Aasland, Babor, De la Fuente & Grant, 1993) en estudiantes de medicina de Bogotá, Colombia. Se diseñó un estudio cuantitativo con una muestra no probabilística de 256 estudiantes mayores de 18 años (media=21,8; DE=2,8) y 60,5% mujeres. Se calculó el coeficiente alfa, el coeficiente omega y la dimensionalidad (análisis factorial confirmatorio). Se observó que el alfa fue 0,792 y la omega, 0,878. Se observaron dos dimensiones que explicaron el 49,4% de la varianza. Se concluye que el cuestionario AUDIT muestra alta confiabilidad, con dos dimensiones y es válido para la identificación de trastornos relacionados con el consumo de alcohol. Se necesitan investigaciones que exploren el desempeño frente a un criterio de referencia.
ABSTRACT
The aim of the research was to know the reliability and validity of the AUDIT (Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test) (Saunders, Aasland, Babor, de la Fuente & Grant, 1993) in students of medicine at Bogota, Colombia. A quantitative study was designed which participated a non probabilistic sample of 256 students over 18 years old (mean=21.8; SD=2.8), and 60.5% were female. The coefficient alpha, coefficient omega and dimensionality (confirmatory factor analysis) were estimated. The authors found that Cronbach alpha was 0.792, and McDonald omega, 0.878. It was retained two dimensions that explicated 49.4% of the total variance. It is concluded that in this group of university students, the AUDIT shows high reliability, and is valid for identifying alcohol use disorders. There are needed researches which explore AUDIT performance compares with the gold standard.
