Abstract
ARTETA-SANDOVAL, Gissel; CUNZA-ARANZABAL, Denis Frank; MADRID-VALDIVIEZO, Jazmin and HUAMAN-PEREZ, July Vanessa. Couple relationship quality scale in the Covid-19 context. Rev. Fac. Med. Hum. [online]. 2022, vol.22, n.2, pp.308-318. Epub Mar 16, 2022. ISSN 1814-5469. http://dx.doi.org/10.25176/rfmh.v22i2.4763.
Introduction:
The pandemic caused by COVID-19 has affected the way of life of people, and particularly relationships. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Quality of Relationship of Couple Scale (CRP-ASO) within the context of compulsory social isolation due to COVID-19, in Peru.
Methods:
The CRP-ASO scale was applied to 499 adults (60% women; Mage= 41.54 years, Sage= 13.48). The internal structure of the instrument was evaluated by exploratory factor analysis (AFE) and confirmatory factor analysis (AFC). Reliability was also estimated by calculating Cronbach’s alpha (α) and McDonald’s omega (ꞷ) coefficients.
Results:
The item-test correlations indicated that all items should be kept (iHC > .2). According to the EFA (KMO = .956; Bartlett sphericity test p < .01) the emergent factor structure yielded 4 factors, confirmed through the CFA (SRMR = .059; R-CFI = .921; R-TLI = .913; R-RMSEA = .077). The factors were called consensus, complicity-intimacy, satisfaction in the relationship and stability in the relationship, with high indicators of internal consistency.
Conclusion:
It is concluded that the instrument has satisfactory psychometric properties and can be used in similar samples.
