一般自我效能感量表（GSES-12）是Sherer自我效能感量表的简化版，评估自我效能感的一个一般维度和三个方面：主动性，持久性和努力。本研究的目的是探讨一般和临床人群的GSES-12西班牙适应的因子结构，可靠性和标准效度。样本由714名志愿者组成（332名来自临床人群）。主成分分析的结果产生了一个3因素的结构，后来通过验证性因素分析证实。此外，本研究还显示了良好的内部一致性和重测值，以及临床组和非临床组之间自我效能得分的差异。本研究表明，西班牙语版的GSES-12是一个有效的和可靠的措施，它增加了相关的信息的辩论的一般自我效能感的维度结构。(C)2014爱思唯尔公司All rights reserved.
The General Self Efficacy Scale (GSES-12) is a short version of the Sherer's Self-Efficacy Scale, and evaluates a general dimension and three aspects of self-efficacy: initiative, persistence and effort. The aim of this study is to explore the factorial structure, reliability, and criterion validity of the Spanish adaptation of the GSES-12 in general and clinical populations. The sample was composed of 714 volunteers (332 from the clinical population). Results of the principal components analysis yielded a 3-factor structure that was later confirmed through Confirmatory Factor Analysis. Moreover, this study shows good internal consistency and test-retest values, and differences in self-efficacy scores between the clinical and non-clinical groups. The present study demonstrates that the Spanish version of the GSES-12 is a valid and reliable measure, and it adds relevant information to the debate about the dimensional structure of general self-efficacy.
