abstract="With the aim of knowing the psychometric characteristics of a Spanish version of the Positive and Negative Suicidal Ideation Inventory-PANSI, an instrumental study was developed. Its application required the participation of 643 students of high schools and universities of San Juan de Pasto (Colombia). The exploratory factor analysis showed a bi-factor structure, that accounted for 64% of variance. The first factor corresponded to negative suicidal thoughts, while the second one included protective thoughts against suicide. The total scale and the sub-scales had high values of internal consistency. Significant relationships were found between PANSI and measures of depression, hopelessness, suicidal thoughts and self-esteem, and with severity indicators of suicidal behavior. It was concluded that PANSI has adequate psychometric properties, making it suitable to be used with adolescents and young students.<p /><p>Language: es</p>",
