Resumen

El objetivo del presente trabajo es adaptar y validar el Cuestionario de Empatía (CE) diseñado por Zoll y Enz (2005), en una muestra de niños bolivianos de entre 8 y 14 años. El cuestionario original fue diseñado para medir empatía cognitiva y afectiva a través de 28 ítems en una escala de cinco puntos distribuidos en dos factores. El EQ adaptado y validado en Bolivia se redujo a 17 ítems, nueve para medir la escala afectiva y 8 para evaluar la escala cognitiva. Con esta estructura, el instrumento mostró valores adecuados de confiabilidad y validez factorial, lo que nos lleva a confirmar que el EQ es un instrumento adecuado para medir la empatía en esta población. Asimismo, el análisis factorial confirmatorio también mostró un ajuste adecuado del modelo métrico con valores aceptables de ajuste del modelo, parsimonia adecuada y, especialmente, un Error Cuadrático Medio de Aproximación (RMSEA) que satisface los requisitos mínimos de ajuste a la matriz de covarianza poblacional.
