    Impact of COVID‑19 on quality of life in Peruvian older adults: construct validity, reliability and invariance of the COV19—Impact on Quality of Life (COV19‑QoL) measurement

    “The aim of the present study was to translate into Spanish and evaluate the psychometric evidence of the Impact on Quality of Life (COV19-QoL) applied to a sample of Peruvian older adults (N=298; 58.1% women, 41.9% men, mean age 65.34 years [SD=11.33]). The study used techniques from the Classical Test Theory (CTT) and Item Response Theory (IRT). The fndings confrmed the single factor structure of the COV19-QoL, high internal consistency reliability, measurement invariance by gender, and all items demonstrated adequate discrimination and difculty indices. In this sense, the items allow adequate discrimination between low, medium and high levels of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on quality of life. In addition, a greater perceived impact of the pandemic on quality of life is necessary to answer the higher response options of the COV19-QoL. In conclusion, the COV19-QoL is a valid measurement scale of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the quality of life of Peruvian older adults.“

    “The Monkeypox Fear Scale: development and initial validation in a Peruvian sample “
    (BioMed Central Ltd, 2022) Caycho‑Rodríguez, Tomás; Vilca, Lindsey W.; Carbajal‑León, Carlos; Gallegos, Miguel; Reyes‑Bossio, Mario; Noe‑Grijalva, Martin; Delgado‑Campusano, Mariel; Muñoz‑del‑Carpio‑Toia, Águeda
    “Background: Fear is one of the basic emotions generated during periods of infectious diseases. Therefore, the aim of this study was to develop and validate a scale that assesses monkeypox fear, the Monkeypox Fear Scale (MFS). Methods: A total of 451 Peruvians participated (61% women and 39% men), with a mean age of 28.31 years (SD=9.72). based on procedures from classical test theory (CTT) and item response theory (IRT). Classical Test Theory (CTT) and Item Response Theory (IRT) procedures were used. Results: The results showed that MFS has a two-factor structure related to emotional and physiological fear fac‑ tors (χ2=41.87; df=12; p<.001; CFI=.99; TLI=.99; RMSEA=.074 [IC90% .051–.100]). In addition, the physiological and emotional factors showed good reliability. Measurement invariance analysis showed that the factor structure of the MFS is strictly invariant between male and female groups. Finally, the discrimination and difculty parameters of the items show adequacy. In addition, the scale seems to be more accurate in measuring high levels of fear of monkeypox. Conclusion: The MFS has adequate psychometric evidence to assess fear of monkeypox in the Peruvian population. These fndings may guide future studies related to the consequences of monkeypox on mental health.“
