This brief report examines the within–network construct validity of the UWES–9S in a
convenience sample of 1502 Chilean students (52% were female) ranging between
18 and 25 years old. The results of confirmatory factor analysis supported a solution
with three related factors that fit significantly better than a one-factor solution. The
three subscales (i.e., vigor, dedication, and absorption) and the overall UWES–9S
showed satisfactory internal consistency. The results of multiple–group confirmatory
factor analysis supported gender invariance. Overall, the UWES–9S was found to be
a reliable and valid scale to assess academic engagement in Chilean undergraduate
university students. [-]
