Resumen

The main purpose of the present study was to evaluate the validity of the Spanish version of the Children�s Self-Perceptions of Adequacy in and Predilection for Physical Activity questionnaire (Hay, 1992). Two studies were carried out with independent samples (N = 688 / N = 201). The first study checked the internal consistency, the factorial and the predictive validity of the scale in relation to gender, and the second, checked the criterion validity of the questionnaire in relation to exercise rate and intensity. The design was a crosssectional with self-reported questionnaires. The results revealed a structure of three oblique factors and 12 interactions among residual errors with adequate internal consistency. The MANOVA showed significant differences in relation to gender, but the effect sizes were low or moderate. The analysis of invariance in relation to the school of origin of the participants revealed that factor structure was invariant. On the other hand, the analysis of structural equations in the second study revealed that practice predicted the perception of adequacy in physical activity, this adequacy predicted the perception of predilection for physical activity, and this situation predicted enjoyment, too. In conclusion, this study provided support for the reliability and validity of the Spanish version of the CSAPPA) questionnaire.
