Abstract/Resumo
The factor structure of the Consideration of Future Consequences Scale (CFCS-14) is currently subject to debate and little is known about its temporal stability, or indeed whether temporal changes affect the factor structure. This study examined the factor structure of a Spanish version of the CFCS-14 in Uruguayan and Spanish samples. In Spain data were collected from a sample that completed the CFCS-14 on five consecutive days, which enabled separate analysis of the within-and between-subject factor structure. Simple and multilevel confirmatory factor analysis showed that a two-correlated factor structure provided the best fit to data from both samples and both the within and between-person levels. Further analyses revealed the expected pattern of correlations between CFCS-14 and ZTPI subscales. The results suggest that the Spanish version of the CFCS-14 is reliable and has a robust, two-factor structure. They also suggest that CFCS-14 scores fluctuate over short periods of time.
