Material and Methods: Study based on data from the Epidemiological Mental Health Study of Metropolitan Lima 2012 - Replication, in a sample of 4 445 people, 18 years or older (42.6 ± 17.4). Results: The average of the ASRS-Likert screening was 3.74 + 3.9 (range 0-21), internal consistency using Cronbach alpha coefficient = 0.806, McDonald’s omega coefficient = 0,869, and factor analysis showed 52.95% of the total inertia explained by a single factor. In binary scale. mean = 0.89 + 1.27 (range 0-6), Cronbach alpha = 0.599, McDonald’s omega=0,753, and 52.31% of the inertia was explained by two factors. With both scales, Kappa coefficient showed 0.734 of concordance of positive screenings. The two forms of qualification are associated with age whereas only binary classification was with marital status and educational level. Conclusions: ASRS-Screening is an instrument of acceptable internal consistency. Its factorial structure and the prevalence of positive screenings vary in accordance with the Likert or binary measurement form. KEY WORDS: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder; adult ADHD; ASRS Screener.

Methods: The ICV was administered as part of the Mental Health Questionnaire of the Epidemiological Study of Mental Health of Metropolitan Lima (2002), with a probabilistic tree stages sample of 2 077 adults. The ICV evaluates the satisfaction in ten areas with a 10 point scale. Normative data of the sample, internal consistency, the construct validity, and the scores according to demographic variables, degree of instruction and level of poverty were analysed.Results: The mean of the ICV was7,63 + 1,33. The instrument has a high internal consistency (Alpha Cronbach = 0,87). Factor analysis identified four factors. The ANOVA shows that average scores vary significantly according to demographic variables, level of education and poverty. Conclusion: The ICV is a valid and reliable instrument that can be used to estimate the quality of life of the adult population in Metropolitan Lima and the results vary depending on demographic characteristics, the educational level and the level of poverty among this population. Key words: Quality of life Index of Mezzich, quality of life, mental health, validity, reliability
Importancia de detección y valoración de las alteraciones del sueño mediante instrumentos válidos... more Importancia de detección y valoración de las alteraciones del sueño mediante instrumentos válidos, confiables y sensibles es muy importante. El Índice de Calidad de Sueño de Pittsburgh (ICSP), evalúa la calidad del sueño y sus alteraciones clínicas durante el mes previo. Objetivos: Determinar la validación del Índice de Calidad de Sueño de Pittsburgh para la población adulta del Perú. Material y Métodos: Estudio Descriptivo transversal de tipo psicométrico, en una muestra probabilística trietápica de 4445 adultos. El ICSP fue administrado como parte del cuestionario de salud mental del Estudio Epidemiológico de Salud Mental de Lima Metropolitana Replicación 2012. Se evaluó la validez de constructo mediante el análisis factorial exploratorio. La confiabilidad se estableció con el método de consistencia interna a través del coeficiente Alfa de Cronbach. Resultados: Se encontraron resultados favorables para la validación del ICSP, tanto en su validez de constructo encontrándose 3 factores que explican el 60,2% de la varianza total, así como en su consistencia interna con un alfa de Cronbach de 0,564.
