Resumen

Epistemological Beliefs (EB) are considerations about knowledge and learning that influence the performance and motivation of students. The aim of the present research is to analyze the psychometric properties of the Epistemological Questionnary-Epistemological Beliefs Inventory (EQEBI) in Spanish university students including factor analysis, reliability analysis, factor invariance testing according to gender, year and area of study and description of the test scores. To reach this objectives the EQEBI test was applied to a sample of 1231 students and analyzed through confirmatory, multi-group factor analysis and descriptive statistics. Results confirm the structure of four factors (simplicity of knowledge, certainty of knowledge, quick learning and innate ability). The Cronbach's Alpha show values similar to those obtained in previous studies, although the Alpha Ordinals exhibit higher reliabilities.. Configural and metric invariance were found between groups analyzed. The EQEBI exhibits adequate psychometric properties and may be used for psychologist and educators for the assessment of EB and comparison between groups.
