Trait Impulsivity

Validation of the Spanish version of the brief UPPS-P Impulsivity Scale for children and adolescents (BUPPS-P NA)Abstract: The Scale of Impulsivity for Children and Adolescents (UPPS-P NA) is a self-report instrument that assesses the impulsivity trait in children and adolescents. However, the UPPS-P NA does not have a short version in Spanish. The present study aimed to develop and validate a short Spanish version of the UPPS-P NA (BUPPS-P NA). First, the UPPS-P NA questionnaire was adapted to Spanish and validated in a sample of 257 children and adolescents (M age = 12.87, SD = 5.64; 61.9% female). Then, the BUPPS-P NA was developed and validated in a sample of 1777 children and adolescents (M age = 12.59, SD = 1.37; 54.2% women). The invariance of the BUPPS-P NA as to biological sex was evaluated also. The UPPS-P NA and BUPPS-P NA scales showed an adequate fit to the data. Also, the BUPPS-P NA Scale was invariant across sex. In summary, the BUPPS-P NA Scale presents adequate psychometric properties to measure the impulsivity trait in children and adolescents.Keywords: Trait impulsivity; childhood; adolescence; validity; reliability; invariance across sex.Resumen: La Escala de Impulsividad para Niños y Adolescentes (UPPS-P NA) es un instrumento de autoinforme que mide los rasgos de impulsividad en niños y adolescentes. Sin embargo, no posee una versión breve en español. El objetivo de este trabajo fue desarrollar y validar una versión breve (BUPPS-P NA) y en español de la UPPS-P NA. Para ello, primero se adaptó al español el cuestionario UPPS-P NA y se validó en una muestra de 257 niños y adolescentes (Medad = 12.87, DT = 5.64; 61.9% mujeres). Posteriormente, se desarrolló y validó el cuestionario BUPPS-P NA en una muestra de 1777 niños y adolescentes (Medad = 12.59, DT = 1.37; 54.2% mujeres). También se evaluó la invariancia del BUPPS-P NA en cuanto al sexo biológico. Los cuestionarios UPPS-P NA y BUPPS-P NA presentaron un ajuste adecuado a los datos. Asimismo, el cuestionario BUPPS-P NA resultó invariante en función del sexo. En resumen, la escala de impulsividad BUPPS-P NA presenta adecuadas propiedades psicométricas para medir impulsividad rasgo en niños y adolescentes.Palabras clave: impulsividad rasgo; niñez; adolescencia; validez; fiabilidad; invarianza en función del sexo.

Young adults increasingly require good financial literacy to make the most of the opportunities provided to them. Unfortunately, existing financial literacy measures that may assist with targeting interventions show low reliability, ceiling effects, and a high level of abstraction. To address this, we designed and assessed the psychometric properties of a new measure specifically targeting young people, the Assessment of Economic and Financial Literacy (ASSET). We find it has better overall validity, reliability, and predictive power than existing measures. Using ASSET, we find that mathematical ability, calculator use (an example of deliberative thinking), gender, and socioeconomic status are key predictors of financial literacy. We recommend this more robust tool for use in financial literacy research to assess implications for guiding major financial decisions amongst young people.
