Sumario: | Compassionate love is a selfless feeling that focuses on the good of others. However, despite the popularity of the term, there is still no instrument of measurement for the Mexican population within the romantic context. For this reason, this research aimed to design and validate an instrument that adequately integrates the construct of compassionate love within couple relationships in a sample of 900 participants from Mexico city. An exploratory factor analysis was carried out to examine the factor conformation. The scale comprised 33 items grouped into two factors that explained 61.96 % of the variance, a Cronbach's Alpha coefficient of .973 and Omega reliability of .976. The findings coincide with the foundations of the theoretical perspectives of the construct, and it represents a conceptual, methodological, and cultural contribution to the study of the variable in the romantic context. |
