Resumen:

However, no information is available that can address more accurately the diagnosis of SAP, nor to evaluate instruments were reliable and valid manner. An instrument was built with 71 items and 10 dimensions, based on symptoms proposed by Gardner; with the psychometric analysis of the scale, a questionnaire from 48 items was obtained, distributed in 6 factors, with a Cronbach alpha of.95 that account for a 72.02% of the total variance. The factors are related to the initial symptoms proposed in the literature but also confirm what stated in other studies, not always are eight symptoms to assess the presence of SAP.
