GONZALEZ RAMIREZ, Mónica Teresa  e  LANDERO HERNANDEZ, René. Psychometric Properties of the Social Support From Parents and Friends Scale (AFA-R) in a Student Sample. Acta de investigación psicol [online]. 2014, vol.4, n.2, pp.1464-1480. ISSN 2007-4719.

The aim of this study was to analyze the psychometric properties of the social support from parents and friends scale (AFA-R). Using a non random sample of students, internal consistency was analyzed and the factor structure of the AFA-R. Internal consistency was adequate (α=.918) and factor analysis corroborated the bi-factor structure, explaining 66.09% of its variance. The correlation between stress and social support was negative and significant (r_s =-.337, p=.001) and it is evidence of validity. The results showed adequate psychometric properties of the AFA-R.
