Resumen
Antecedentes: La necesidad de afecto (NA) se refiere a las diferencias individuales en la motivación para buscar o evitar situaciones y actividades que inducen emoción. La investigación previa ha demostrado que la NA es un constructo relevante para entender procesos psicológicos relacionados con el afecto. La presente investigación adaptó al castellano el cuestionario de necesidad de afecto (NAQ), así como su versión breve (NAQ-S). Por tanto, examinamos las evidencias de validez y fiabilidad de las puntuaciones en ambos cuestionarios. Método: En el Estudio 1 (N = 416), exploramos las propiedades psicométricas de las puntuaciones en la adaptación del NAQ, así como las relaciones con medidas de otros constructos psicológicos relevantes. En el Estudio 2 (N = 118), analizamos la fiabilidad y la validez de las puntuaciones en la adaptación del NAQ-S. Resultados: Se encontraron dos factores (i.e., Aproximación a la Emoción y Evitación de la Emoción) y la consistencia interna, así como la fiabilidad test-retest, de las puntuaciones en ambos cuestionarios fueron adecuadas. Las relaciones con otras medidas proporcionaron evidencia positiva de la validez concurrente. Conclusiones: Las puntuaciones obtenidas en ambos cuestionarios mostraron validez y fiabilidad, por lo que deberían ser considerados en la investigación futura relacionada con la NA.
