A sample of 125 college students from Lima (84.8% female) between 18 and 31 years old (M = 22.51) was evaluated. The internal structure of the STAI was analyzed by a confirmatory factor analysis, evaluating three models: oblique, bifactor and unidimensional. The results indicate that a single dimension constitutes the STAI and there are coefficients of reliability with high magnitudes.
