Resumen

Background: The present study aims to: a) examine the internal structure of STAI in the Dominican population; b) verify internal consistency; c) obtain evidence of criterion validity by correlating STAI scores with depression, and d) compare STAI scores in general and hospital population, to examine their discriminative capacity. Method: For the validation of the STAI scale, a sample of 1034 participants from the general (n = 792) and hospital (n = 242) population of Santiago de los Caballeros, Dominican Republic. Results and conclusions: The results support a factorial solution of two factors, namely present anxiety and well-being. This solution provides adequate index of fit and optimum internal consistency. On the other hand, validity analyses through group comparison allowed us to confirm that the scale adequately distinguishes between general and psychiatric populations. Finally, there are strong correlations between anxiety and depression levels.
