Dimensionality of a single item of cancer worry through structural equation models
The study aims to analyze the influence of the latent variable cancer concern (PPC) on the measurement of the single item Cancer Worry Chart (CWC) through the method of structural equations (SEM). 165 healthy adults with a family history of cancer participated (Mage = 40.25 years; SD = 12.99), who a...

El estudio tiene como objetivo analizar la influencia de la variable latente preocupación por el cáncer (PPC) sobre la medida de ítem único Cancer Worry Chart (CWC) a través del método de ecuaciones estructurales (SEM). Participaron 165 adultos sanos con historia familiar de cáncer (Medad= 40.25 años; DE= 12.99), que asistían a la consulta externa de instituciones de salud de Perú. El CWC presenta un predominio de respuestas que expresan una menor preocupación por el cáncer (M= 2.27; DE = .98). El uso de SEM, reporta índices de ajuste muy buenos para el modelo (SB-χ2 = .0051; gl = 1; p = .943; CFI = 1.00; RMSEA [IC90%] = .00 [.00, .04]; SRMR = .007), con una carga factorial de .949 y comunalidad de .90. El constructo PPC explica el 90% de la variabilidad de los puntajes del CWC. Este hallazgo brinda evidencia complementaria de validez de constructo del CWC.
