Abstract (English): The aims of this study was to validate the Self-Assessment Questionnaire for Exams-related Anxiety (CAAE, for its acronym in Spanish) in university students (n= 1024) of both sexes (66.4% women, and 33,6% men) and 20.34 years of mean age (SD: 1.78). For the study, the sample was randomly divided into two groups. With first subgroup 23 different structures were tested applying an approach based on Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), and Exploratory Structural Equation Modeling (ESEM). The Bifactorial S-1 model, with a general factor and a specific cognitive factor, presented the best fit indices (TLI: 0,91; CFI: 0,93; RM-SEA: 0,077). The model was replicated in the second sample. Its validity, reliability and gender invariance were confirmed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Para el estudio, la muestra se dividió aleatoriamente en dos grupos. Con el primer grupo se probaron 23 modelos estructurales utilizando un enfoque basado en el análisis factorial confirmatorio (CFA, por sus siglas en inglés) y el análisis exploratorio de modelos estructurales (ESEM, por sus siglas en inglés). El modelo Bifactorial S-1, con un factor general y un factor cognitivo específico, presentó los mejores índices de ajuste (TLI: 0,91; CFI: 0,93; RMSEA: 0,077). El modelo fue replicado en la segunda muestra confirmándose su validez, fiabilidad e invarianza de género. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
