Resumo:This evaluates the psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the Revised Senseof Coherence (SOC-R) scale in Argentina, which assesses the general ability to perceive lifephenomena as connected and to balance positive and negative appraisals of life experiences.A total of 575 people participated in the study with ages between 18 and 84 years (M = 43.94,SD = 15.90) and both genders (male= 35.7 %, female= 64.3 %). A 3-factor model resulted inacceptable fit indices (NNFI = .95; CFI = .97; IFI = .97; RMSEA = .054). Results indicatedan acceptable internal consistency for the subscales Manageability (ω= .73; α= .69),Reflection (ω= .89; α= .85) and Balance (ω= .70; α= .55). The adaptation into Spanishpresents 13 items, as proposed by the original authors. The findings showed that the scale isvalid for use in the Argentine population.
