dc.description.abstract	Objetivo: la adaptación al español de tres escalas que miden frecuencia (SWFS) y tipo de motivación para el aislamiento social (SWMS y CSPS). Método: la muestra se compone de 1.112 adolescentes españoles de entre 12 y 17 años, dividida aleatoriamente en dos grupos en los que se realizaron análisis factoriales exploratorios y confi rmatorios (CFA) separadamente. También se utilizó una muestra de adolescentes en acogimiento residencial (n = 128) para realizar análisis de validez discriminante. Resultados: el SWFS se redujo a ocho ítems que alcanzan el 40% de varianza explicada (PVE), y tiene una fi abilidad alta. El SWMS funcionó perfectamente en su estructura original de acuerdo al CFA. Se eliminaron algunos ítems del CSPS. La nueva escala (SWMS-5D) consta de 20 ítems, incluye las cuatro subescalas del SWMS (Rechazo iguales, Asociabilidad, Timidez y Bajo Ánimo) y la subescala ¿Evitación¿ del CSPS, y mostró una estructura adecuada en el CFA. Los análisis revelan validez discriminante y convergente adecuadas. Conclusión: las escalas resultantes (SWFS-8 y SWMS-5D) podrían considerarse instrumentos útiles para medir frecuencia y motivación para el aislamiento social en muestras españolas.	es_ES
dc.description.abstract	Objective: To adapt into Spanish three scales measuring frequency (SWFS) and motivation for social withdrawal (CSPS and SWMS) and to develop a scale capable of assessing the fi ve motivations for social withdrawal. Method: Participants were 1,112 Spanish adolescents, aged 12-17 years. The sample was randomly split into two groups in which exploratory and confi rmatory (CFA) factor analyses were performed separately. A sample of adolescents in residential care (n = 128) was also used to perform discriminant validity analyses. Results: SWFS was reduced to eight items that account for 40% of explained variance (PVE), and its reliability is high. SWMS worked adequately in the original version, according to CFA. Some items from the CSPS were removed from the fi nal Spanish version. The newly developed scale (SWMS-5D) is composed of 20 items including fi ve subscales: Peer Isolation, Unsociability, Shyness, Low Mood and Avoidance. Analyses reveal adequate convergent and discriminant validities. Conclusions: The resulting SWFS-8 and SWMS-5D could be considered useful instruments to assess frequency and motivation for social withdrawal in Spanish samples.	eu
