The construction, reliability, and evidence of validity of a scale to measure new technologies by Spanish psychologist.

In this study we present the construction and analysis of a ques-tionnaire for analyze the use of new technologies (NNTT) by psychology professionals, based on a sample of 1759 psychologists.). The final version composed by 36 items was generated from a bibliographic review on the new technologies applied to psychology. Exploratory factor analysis of se-lected items based on a randomized sample (n = 853) indicated the pres-ence of five factors related to 1.-Online storage; 2.-Use of basic office and internet tools; 3.-Communication routes with the patient; 4.-Basic and advanced knowledge of programming and evaluation languages; 5.- Psy-chological interventions through NNTT. Validity of the 5-factor structure was supported by confirmatory factor analysis carried out with the remain-ing sample (n = 906). The results of reliability (internal consistency) and validity were adequate. Significant differences are found by gender, men obtain higher scores in both factor 1 and 3. The developed questionnaire is a valid and reliable instrument to measure the proposed construct.
