Abstract

This article explores the psychometric properties of the Brief Adolescents' Subjective Well-Being in School Scale (BASWBSS) in a sample of 1332 Chilean students aged from 13 to 19 years. We performed factor structure, internal consistency and convergent validity analyses. The results show a bifactorial structure, which coincides with that proposed by the authors of this scale and has an internal consistency and adequate convergent validity. The results indicate that the BASWBSS is an adequate self-reporting instrument for the measurement of Chilean adolescents' Subjective Well-being levels in school. We discuss the importance of having instruments whose use, in combination with other measures related to school, allows for a deeper understanding of the processes related to the promotion of mental health in adolescence and for the assessment and follow-up of preventive interventions in the school context.
