Resumen

El encuentro de beneficio, que se define como la percepción de cambios positivos por parte del individuo como resultado de su enfrentamiento a un suceso vital adverso, ha sido asociado con bienestar emocional y mejor salud. El objetivo del presente estudio fue analizar las propiedades psicométricas de la Benefit Finding Scale (BFS; Antoni et al., 2001) en una muestra de pacientes que acababan de sufrir un primer episodio cardiaco (n=153). Los resultados mostraron que en la escala se pueden distinguir tres dimensiones que recogen aspectos relacionados con el crecimiento personal, la importancia de la familia y la aceptación de las situaciones, aunque también es posible emplearla como una escala unidimensional. Tanto la escala total como las tres subescalas mostraron alta consistencia interna y estabilidad temporal relativa, así como adecuada validez de criterio. Se concluye que puede ser empleada con total garantía y se discute la idoneidad de realizar análisis confirmatorios.
