Abstract

The Center for Epidemiological Studies (CES) of the United States introduced, along with the Depression Scale (CES-D) and another scale to rapidly quantify suicidal ideation (CED-IS) during the two most recent weeks. However, little is known about the psychometric performance of this instrument. The objective of this study was to verify the psychometric performance of the CES-IS in school enrolled adolescents from a small town in Boyacá, Colombia. A validation study was carried out with the participation of 363 students between 10 and 17 years of age (mean=13, SD=1.8); 55.4% female students and 44.5% male students. The adolescents completed the four items of the CES-IS, a ten-item version of the CES-D-10 and the Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale (RSS). Internal consistency (Cronbach alpha and McDonald omega), dimensional structure (confirmatory factorial analysis, AFC) and convergence with CES-D-10 (Spearman correlation, rs ) were estimated. The CES-IS scores were observed between 4 and 20 (M=6.1, SD=3.5, Me=4, IQR=4-7) and the CES-D between 11 and 44 (M=23.3, SD=6.8, Me=22, IQR=18-27). The CES-IS showed Cronbach alpha of 0.86 and McDonald’s omega of 0.87, a dimension that explained 71.2% of the variance, the adjustment indicators RMSEA=0.00, 90%CI 0.00-0.09; CFI=1.00, TLI=1.00 and SRMR = 0.01, convergent correlation of rs =0.59 (p=0.001) with the CES-D-10 and divergent correlation of rs =-0.38 (p=0.001) with the RSS. It is concluded that the CES-IS among adolescents of a small town in Boyacá, Colombia, has high internal consistency, a onedimensional structure and high convergence with CES-D-10 and divergence with the RSS. It is necessary to investigate the performance of this instrument in Colombian adolescents with other distinctive characteristics.
