Resumen

La Escala del Centro para Estudios Epidemiológicos (CES-D) es la más utilizada para medir sintomatología depresiva en la investigación sobre cuidadores. El objetivo de este estudio es analizar su estructura dimensional y su equivalencia de medida entre cuidadores de dos países de habla hispana. Se entrevistó a 595 mujeres cuidadoras de familiares con demencia de Madrid, España, y Coahuila, México. La estructura del CES-D se analizó mediante análisis factoriales exploratorios (AFE) y confirmatorios (AFC). Se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre las medias de 7 ítems. Los resultados del AFE con la muestra total respaldan claramente una solución de 4 factores. El AFC de la estructura de 4 factores revela cargas elevadas y significativas para todos los ítems (excepto el 4). Al imponer restricciones de igualdad para valorar la equivalencia entre países, el cambio en chi-cuadrado fue significativo, indicando que no se puede asumir una equivalencia completa. Se encontraron diferencias significativas entre países para tres de las cuatro puntuaciones medias en los factores latentes. Aunque los resultados proporcionan un apoyo general a la estructura original de cuatro factores, se debería tener una cierta cautela a la hora de informar sobre comparaciones en puntuaciones en depresión entre países de habla hispana.
