Resumen

Este artículo propone una escala de motivos para jugar videojuegos en adolescentes, adaptada al castellano a partir de los estudios previos de Selnow (1984), Wigand et al. (1985), Raney et al. (2006) y Sherry et al. (2006). Se utilizaron datos obtenidos a partir de 400 cuestionarios aplicados a estudiantes españoles de entre 14 y 20 años. Se ha comprobado la fiabilidad del modelo mediante el análisis factorial confirmatorio y de consistencia interna, así como la validez de criterio y constructo relacionando los cuatro factores del modelo con variables de consumo y rasgos de personalidad, respectivamente.
