| Sumario: | Among the available instruments for measuring self-esteem, Rosenberg’s scale has proven to be a reliable and valid instrument for diff erent stages of development such as adolescence and adulthood. The main purpose of the current study is to assess the psychometrics properties of this scale in older adults from Mexico City. The non probabilistic sample was made up of 220 older adults, with an age range of 60-88 years (M = 68.8, SD = 6.8). The results indicate that the scale has a total Cronbach’s alpha of .73, an explained variance equal to 52% and an adequate factorial structure. The Rosenberg’s self-esteem scale has appropriate psychometric criteria to measure self-esteem in older adults of Mexico City. The adaptation of Rosenberg’s self-esteem scale is recommended for future studies with larger and more representative samples. |
