Resumen

Este estudio examina la consistencia interna, validez convergente, y la sensibilidad, especificidad y valor predictivo positivo y negativo de la versión española del Eating Disorder Examination-Self-Report Questionnaire (EDE-Q), como cuestionario de screening de los trastornos de la conducta alimentaria (TCA) en una muestra comunitaria. Un total de 1543 estudiantes hispano-hablantes de 12 a 21 años de ambos géneros completaron la versión española del EDE-Q y el cuestionario EAT-40. La versión española de la edición 12 de la entrevista Eating Disorders Examination (EDE) fue administrada a 602 estudiantes. Se obtuvo aceptable consistencia interna para las cuatro subescalas de la versión española del EDE-Q (α ≥ .74). Correlación biserial puntual corregida realizada con los 22 ítems incluidos en las subescalas de la versión española del EDE-Q mostró valores aceptables para todos los ítems. La subescala Dieta del EAT-40 correlacionó positiva y significativamente con las cuatro subescalas de la versión española del EDE-Q (r ≥ .70). Resultados aceptables en sensibilidad, especificidad y valor predictivo positivo y negativo fueron hallados en comparación con la entrevista EDE. La correlación entre los diagnósticos obtenidos por las versiones españolas de la EDE y del EDE-Q fue positiva and significativa. Los resultados demuestran la adecuidad de la versión española del EDE-Q como cuestionario de screening de TCA en muestras comunitarias.
