A1 - Guirado, I.C. A1 - Tejada, A.R. SP - 17 EP - 37 VL - 39 IS - 1 N2 - BACKGROUND: The Integrated Motivational-Volitional Model contemplates suicidal ideation as a psychological reaction to a situation that is perceived as a defeat along with the perception of being trapped and without possible escape or rescue.

AIM: The present study aims to adapt to the Spanish context and analyze the psychometric properties of two scales, one to measure defeat and another to measure entrapment.

METHOD: Two hundred and thirty-four people aged 18-35 years (58.6% women) completed an online questionnaire.

RESULTS: The analysis of the internal structure showed a bifactorial solution for the scale of defeat and a unifactorial solution for the scale of entrapment, both with adequate adjustment indexes. In addition, they showed good reliability of the test scores and favorable evidence of validity.

CONCLUSIONS: Having both scales adapted helps to improve the assessment of suicide risk, as well as to guide the intervention and make contributions in the field of suicide. © 2021 Terapia Psicológica.
