Abstract
Background: The identification of the reasons for marijuana use has been supported by instruments such as the MMM. Despite its importance, there are still no valid brief versions of this instrument in Latin American countries. This paper seeks to fill this gap by providing evidence of validity and reliability, as well as the structural invariance of the MMM. Method: The sample consisted of 1164 male and female marijuana users, aged between 18 and 49 years, from Lima and Callao. Results: The factor analysis found a pentafactorial structure. The brief version (MMM-P15) and the wide MMM showed favorable properties from structure and reliability (ꙍ > 0.88, H > .84) with a slight superiority of the short instrument (RMSEA = .058 [CI 90% .050, .067], SRMR = 0.044, TLI = 0.99, CFI = 0.99). Likewise, both versions maintain the invariance of the instrument according to sex and evidence of internal validity was found (AVE > 0.50). Conclusions: The MMM-P15 shows psychometric properties that support its use in both male and female marijuana users, and it is a short, versatile, and useful instrument for research purposes even in clinical settings.
Antecedentes: La identificación de los motivos por los cuales se consume marihuana se ha visto apoyada por instrumentos como el MMM. A pesar de su importancia, aún no se cuenta con versiones breves válidas de este en países latinoamericanos. Este trabajo busca cubrir esta carencia aportando evidencia de validez y confiabilidad, así como la invarianza estructural del MMM. Método: La muestra comprende 1164 consumidores de marihuana, varones y mujeres, con edades entre 18 y 49 años, de Lima y Callao. Resultados: El análisis factorial halló una estructura pentafactorial. La versión breve (MMM-P15) y extensa (MMM) muestran favorables propiedades de estructura y consistencia interna (ꙍ > 0.88, H > .84) con una ligera superioridad del instrumento corto (RMSEA = .058 [IC 90% .050, .067], SRMR = .044, GFI = .99, TLI = .99, CFI = .99). Asimismo, ambas versiones mantienen la invarianza según el sexo y se encontró evidencia de validez interna (AVE > 0.50). Conclusiones: El MMM-P15 evidencia propiedades psicométricas que respaldan su uso tanto en hombres y mujeres consumidores de marihuana, además es un instrumento corto, versátil y útil para fines de investigación incluso en contextos clínicos.
背景:大麻使用原因的识别已经得到了MMM等工具的支持。尽管这一文书很重要,但在拉丁美洲国家仍然没有有效的简要版本。本文试图通过提供有效性和可靠性的证据,以及MMM的结构不变性来填补这一空白。方法:样本包括来自利马和卡亚俄的1164名18 - 49岁的男性和女性大麻使用者。结果:因子分析呈五因子结构。从结构和可靠性上看,短型(MMM- p15)和宽型(MMM- p15)表现出良好的性能(ꙍ> 0.88,H > 0.84),短型(RMSEA = 0.058 [CI 90% .050, .067], SRMR = 0.044, TLI = 0.99, CFI = 0.99)略优于短型(RMSEA = 0.058 [CI 90% .050, .067])。同样,这两个版本根据性别保持了仪器的不变性,并发现了内部效度的证据(AVE > 0.50)。结论:MMM-P15显示的心理测量特性支持其在男性和女性大麻使用者中使用,并且它是一种简短,多功能,甚至在临床环境中用于研究目的的有用工具。前情提要:La identificación de los motivation de los los cuales使用大麻的原因是访问了apayada穷人的工具。一个如此重要的pesar, aún no se cuenta conversiones breves válidas de este en países latinoamericas。Este trabajo busca cubrir estacarencia aptando evidence de validity by conabilidad, así como la invarianza estructural del MMM。msamodo:大麻协会包括1164个大麻消费者、varones和mujeres、conedades entre 18 y 49 años、de Lima和Callao。结果:El análisis阶乘halló结构五因子。La versión breve (mm - p15) y extensa (MMM)对结构与内部一致性(ꙍ> 0.88,H > 0.84)和una ligera superioridad del instrumento corto (RMSEA = 0.058 [IC 90% 0.050, 0.067], SRMR = 0.044, GFI = 0.99, TLI = 0.99, CFI = 0.99)有利。Asimismo, ams版本的mantienen la invarianza según el sexo通过encontró evidence de validz interna (AVE b> 0.50)。结论:El MMM-P15证据表明,在大麻吸食者与成人的关系中,与大麻吸食者的关系中,与大麻吸食者的关系中,además与大麻吸食者的关系中,versátil与útil与大麻吸食者的关系中,investigación包括与大麻吸食者的关系中。
