Adaptación y validación del inventario de autotrascendencia para adultos en el contexto argentino

Abstract

Introduction: In recent years self-transcendence has gained increasing interest within psychological literature. Currently, the Adult Self Transcendence Inventory (ASTI) is one of the main scales used in empirical research for measuring self transcendence. Objective: The present study aims to adapt and validate the scale to the Argentine context in a sample of 205 high school and university students in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires. Method: A confirmatory factor analysis of the factor structure of the adapted Adult Self Transcendence Inventory was conducted to assess whether the scale’s purported 2 factors emerged. The results generally supported the 2-factor model.
