Abstract
En el ámbito de la psicología comunitaria se ha seguido un proceso de desarrollo teórico
particular para definir con precisión y medir óptimamente el constructo de sentido de
comunidad. En el Perú se ha registrado información acerca de este concepto pero, el análisis
específico de las características psicométricas de las pruebas en este contexto ha ido
evolucionando, es por ello que en el presente estudio, además de conocer con precisión las
implicancias del sentido de comunidad en personas que se identifican como miembros del
movimiento católico Camino Neocatecumenal, analiza las particularidades psicométricas de
la escala de McMillan y Chavis (2008) “Sense of Community Index Two (SCI-2)” traducida
al idioma castellano. La muestra está constituida por 125 personas, miembros de las
comunidades religiosas del movimiento Católico Camino Neocatecumenal. El cuestionario
seleccionado es analizado psicométricamente y reporta evidencias de validez y confiabilidad
en el contexto limeño-peruano. Al realizar el análisis psicométrico de la prueba, los factores
que permiten el análisis del sentido de comunidad fueron cuatro, el primero, Integración y
Satisfacción de necesidades, el segundo, Membresía, el tercero, Influencia y el cuarto,
Conexión emocional. Uno de los logros centrales de la presente investigación es el de
presentar una escala adaptada y describir el concepto de sentido de comunidad presente en
un tipo de comunidad con características particulares, distinta a las previamente estudiadas en
nuestro contexto. Ello permitirá, en futuras investigaciones, aplicar la escala en el contexto
nacional (peruano).
Community Psychology has followed a particular theoretical process in order to define and measure optimally the sense of community. In Perú, there is information on this concept; nevertheless, the analysis of the psychometric characteristics of tests in this specific context has evolved. Therefore, in this study as well as knowing accurately the implications of the sense of community in people who identify themselves as members of the Neocatechumenal Way; the psychometric particularities of the "Sense of community index two (SCI-II) scale", translated into Spanish, have been analyzed. The sample was constituted by 125 participants who were self-identified as members of the Neocatechumenal Way’s religious community (Catholic movement). The selected survey was analyzed psychometrically and its validity and reliability was reported in the context of Lima, Perú. After the psychometric analysis of the questionnaire, four factors were found for assessing the sense of community. The first one, Integration and fulfillment needs; the second Membership, the third Influence, and finally, Shared emotional connection. One of the central achievements of the present investigation is to present an adapted scale and describe the concept of sense of community observed in a particular type of community whose characteristics are different from the communities previously studied in our context. Further research in different national contexts and the proposed scale can be applied.
