[Self-concept in adults from Spain and Portugal].

The aim of this work is to confirm the penta-factorial validity of the AF5 Self-Concept Questionnaire in Spanish and Portuguese adults. From the responses of a total of 2058 adults (1508 Spanish, 73.3%, and 550 Portuguese, 26.7%) was analyzed the reliability of the instrument, was compared the validity of the 5 oblique factor model proposed by the authors versus unifactorial and the orthogonal alternative models, and was studied the invariance of the Portuguese translation. The results of structural equation modeling supported the authors' penta-factorial model. The multi-group factorial invariance showed that Portuguese translation of the AF5 does not change neither the original factor weights, nor the variances and covariances of the factors. Finally, the reliability was good for the original Spanish version and Portuguese translation.
