The aim of this study was to develop and validate a tool to evaluate users’ perceptions of video game structural features. The sample was comprised of 502 gamers with an average age of 23.35 years (SD = 6.89). 67.3 % used a personal computer, 20.7 % a desktop console, 11.4 % a mobile platform, and 0.6 % a portable console. Multiple exploratory factor analyses were conducted to identify the optimal model. Initial evidence of reliability, construct, and external validity was found (TLI and CFI > .90, RMSEA <.06, SRMR <.08). Structural features were categorized into three primary factors: social, control, and reward. After a multiple linear regression, structural features and gaming motivations explain 19% of the variance in IGD. In conclusion, the scale demonstrates solid psychometric properties for assessing how Spanish-speaking players perceive the structural characteristics of video games and how these relate to the development of IGD.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionUniversitat Ramon Llull.
