VENTURA-LEON, José; JARA-AVALOS, Stefani; GARCIA-PAJUELO, Carmen  e  ORTIZ-SAENZ, Carlos. Validation of a scale of perfectionism in peruvian children. Act.Psi [online]. 2018, vol.32, n.124, pp.16-33. ISSN 2215-3535.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/ap.v32i124.30385.

This article discusses the validation of the Oros’ Child Perfectionism Scale (EPI) in a Peruvian child population. A total of 1084 children aged 7 to 12 years (M = 9.75, SD = 1.23) from seven private and public educational institutions participated. Exploratory Factor Analysis revealed an oblique two-dimensional scale (Reaction to failure and Self-orders); however, three items had a load <. 30. The Confirmatory Factor Analysis corroborated the bidimensional oblique structure with the exception of correlated errors. Reliability was estimated using the Omega coefficient (ω = .810). It is concluded that the EPI has evidence of validity and reliability of the scores.
