Abstract

Validation of the SWLS in Colombia with 1,587 participants (university students, general population, and clinical). The unidimensional structure showed good fit and internal consistency was high (α = .89). Metric and scalar invariance was observed between Colombia and Spanish samples, allowing transnational comparisons.
