The objective of this study was to validate the theoretical model of ECOMPLEC. Sec. A bifactor model that postulates the existence of a general reading comprehension factor and three specifi c factors provided a good fi t to the data. Method: 1,912 adolescents (13-18 years) participated in this study. Data analysis included construct validity via confi rmatory factor analysis, and factors were regressed onto observed covariates for the interpretation of the constructs. Reliability was calculated from a non-linear SEM in order to justify the interpretability of the observed scale and subscale scores. Results: The bifactor model exhibited a signifi cantly better fi t to the data than the second-order model. Furthermore, construct validity analysis suggests the existence of specifi c reading comprehension factors. Finally, the reliability study also supports the idea of using a total score to obtain a measure of reading comprehension. Conclusions: ECOMPLEC. Sec displays a valid parsimonious factor structure, as well as metric properties that make it a suitable tool to assess reading comprehensionAntecedentes: ECOMPLEC.Sec es una prueba de comprensión lectora para estudiantes de Secundaria concebido desde una perspectiva multidimensional en consonancia con las pruebas educativas de gran escala como PISA o PIRLS. El objetivo de este estudio fue la validación del modelo teórico de ECOMPLEC.Sec. Un modelo bifactorial que presupone la existencia de un factor general de comprensión lectora y tres factores específicos ajustó adecuadamente a los datos. Método: 1.912 adolescentes (edades entre 13-18 años) participaron en este estudio. Los análisis estadísticos incluyen un análisis factorial confirmatorio cuyos factores se predicen por cuatro covariables con el fi n de aportar significado a los constructos. La fiabilidad se abordó desde un modelo no lineal SEM para ayudar en la interpretación de las puntuaciones observadas de las escalas y subescalas. Resultados: el modelo bifactorial exhibió un ajuste significativamente mejor que el modelo factorial de segundo orden. Las evidencias de validez de constructo apuntan a la existencia de factores específi cos de comprensión lectora. Conclusiones: ECOMPLEC.Sec muestra una estructura factorial parsimoniosa junto con unas propiedades psicométricas que hacen de ella una prueba adecuada para evaluar la comprensión lectoraThis work has been funded by MINNECO PSI2013- 47219-P projectColegio Oficial de Psicólogos del Principado de AsturiasDepartamento de Psicología BásicaDepartamento de Psicología Social y MetodologíaFacultad de Psicología20162016-01-01research articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1VoRhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10486/677427https://dx.doi.org/10.7334/psicothema2015.92reponame:Biblos-e Archivo.
