Abstract
Este estudio analiza las propiedades psicométricas del Inventa-
rio de Creencias sobre la violencia de pareja. En concreto, este inventario
mide actitudes generales y específicas hacia la violencia contra las mujeres
dentro de las relaciones de pareja. En el estudio participan 1169 personas
con una edad comprendida entre 18 y 77 años. Los resultados muestran
tres factores: a) Justificación de la violencia de género, b) Responsabilidad
de la víctima y c) Responsabilidad del maltratador. El análisis factorial con-
firmatorio mostró índices de ajuste apropiados: CFI = .952, NFI = .942 y
RMSEA = .062 (90% CI [.058 - .065]). Además, los resultados muestran
validez convergente y divergente con el sexismo ambivalente hacia las mu-
jeres y hacia los hombres. Se discute la utilidad de esta escala en el ámbito
de la violencia contra la pareja
This study analysed the psychometric properties of the Invento- ry of Beliefs about Intimate Partner Violence (IBIPV) which is designed to measure general and specific attitudes to violence against women in inti- mate relationships. The participants were 1169 people aged from 18 to 77 years. We found that the IBIPV has a three-factor structure, the factors identified were: a) Justifying Partner Violence (JPV), b) Victims Responsible for Violence (VRV) and c) Abuser Responsible for Violence (ARV). Multi-group confirmatory factor analysis showed three levels of measurement invari- ance across gender: configural, metric and scalar invariance. As expected, evidence of the convergent and divergent validity of the inventory was provided by comparisons with the Ambivalent Sexism Inventory (ASI) and Ambivalence toward Men Inventory (AMI). Potential applications of the scale in the field of partner violence are discussed.
