FERREIRA, Manuela et al. Teen Engagement Scale (AAIS): Confirmatory Factor Analysis. Revista Portuguesa de Enfermagem de Saúde Mental [online]. 2017, n.spe5, pp.39-43. ISSN 1647-2160.  https://doi.org/10.19131/rpesm.0165.

BACKGROUND: Alcohol consumption during adolescence contributes significantly to physical and psychological harm and is associated with intoxication, sexual risk behavior and suicide attempts. Validating a scale that allows the evaluation of adolescents’ involvement with alcohol is of capital importance in order to plan promoting healthy lifestyles actions. AIM: To validate the Scale of adolescents’ involvement with alcohol. METHODS: We resorted to a quantitative, cross-sectional, analytical, descriptive and correlational research model with a sample of 971 high school students from public and cooperative schools. The evaluation protocol includes a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Scale Adolescents’ Involvement with Alcohol of Mayer & Filstead (1979) adapted by Fontes & Alves (1999). RESULTS: Students aged between 14 and 21 years old, mostly boys (50.80%). They were habitual drinkers without problems (75.30%), with high expectations regarding alcohol (45.10%). We performed the study of reliability and validity for the Alcohol Involvement Scale for Adolescents. After factorial analysis of the main components with orthogonal rotation of the varimax type, we obtained 2 factors with suckling roots higher than 1, which together accounted for 55.41% of the total variance. The Cronbach's alpha for the whole scale was α= 0.900, with a split-half coefficient for the first half = 0.865 and for the second half = 0.800. CONCLUSIONS: The psychometric properties of the alcohol involvement scale for adolescents (AISA) certify its quality, as a tool to be used by health professionals to assess adolescents' behaviors and feelings regarding alcohol.
