Abstract:
The Short Health Anxiety Inventory is a common screening tool for assessing health anxiety among
adolescents; however, its psychometric properties and internal structure have not been evaluated within
a Spanish-speaking population. The goodness of fit of four models of the latent structure of the Short
Health Anxiety Inventory was tested by using confirmatory factor analysis in a sample of 832 Spanish
secondary school adolescents. Based on these results, the reliability of the original two-factor model was
tested. Differences in health anxiety by gender and age were also examined. The results support use of
the Spanish version of the Short Health Anxiety Inventory by researchers and clinicians among Spanish
adolescents.
