Callous-Unemotional (CU) is a trait that
distinguishes children and adolescents with
serious behavioral and psychopathic problems
that refer to emotional insensitivity, lack of
empathy and low response to punishment. One
of the instruments used to evaluate these traits is
the Inventory of Callous-Unemotional Traits
(ICU). The main purpose of the present study
was to verify the factorial structure of the
Inventory Callous-Unemotional in its short
version (ICU-13) through the Confirmatory
Factor Analysis. The instrument was applied to
759 young people between 12 and 22 years old,
both male (55.7%) and female. The analysis
indicated an adequate adjustment for the three
dimensions of the instrument: Insensitivity,
Carelessness and Inexpressibility, which
replicates the results obtained with the original
instrument of 24 items. The reliability of the
total scale was acceptable (α = .669) and also
that of the factors; Insensibility (α = .667, with 6
items), uncaring (α = .636, with 4 items) and
Inexpressibility (α = .631, with 3 items). Based
on the results obtained, we conclude that ICU-13
is an instrument with adequate psychometric
properties that allows the identification of
Callous-Unemotional features in adolescents and
that may be useful to recognize a subset of young
people with serious behavioral problems. |
