Resumen
Objetivo. Analizar las propiedades psicométricas del AAQ-II en población adulta ecuatoriana con tomas presenciales, aumentando la fiabilidad de la muestra. Método. En este estudio se evaluaron las propiedades psicométricas de la Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-II (AAQ-II) en población ecuatoriana. Participaron 450 personas entre 18 y 53 años, de las cuales un 46.7% fueron mujeres y un 53.3% hombres. Resultados. En el análisis factorial confirmatorio se encontró una estructura de tres dimensiones: evitación de recuerdos, evitación emocional y falta de autodominio. Un análisis de invarianza reveló que la escala es invariante entre hombres y mujeres. Se encontró que la escala presenta buena consistencia interna (α = .90). Se discute la validez de la AAQ-II como una herramienta para evaluar la evitación experiencial en población adulta ecuatoriana.
