TREJOS-HERRERA, Ana M. et al. Validation of the Psychometric Properties of the Type D Personality Scale in Colombian Adults. Act.Colom.Psicol. [online]. 2023, vol.26, n.2, pp.128-140. Epub 28-Sep-2023. ISSN 0123-9155. https://doi.org/10.14718/acp.2023.26.2.11.
Type D personality refers to vulnerability to psychological stress, which is expressed in two components: negative affectivity (NA) and social inhibition (si), which can trigger a state of psychosocial stress that affects health. The aim of this study was to analyze the psychometric properties of the Type D Personality Scale (DS-14) in the Colombian adult population. The sample consisted of 456 colombian adults (41.7 °% men and 58.3 °% women) between 18 and 86 years of age. The reliability coefficient for the two subscales of the DS-14 was .73 (NA) and .72 (SI), and .79 for the total score. Concurrent validity was analyzed with measures of resilient coping strategies and religious coping. The results show internal and external validity given the indices of the exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis.
