Resumen

Se le conoce como Estigma de Peso a la devaluación social que experimenta una persona en función de su peso e imagen corporal cuando estos son percibidos como más grandes de lo normal. Por su parte, las Actitudes Anti Obesidad son las evaluaciones y percepciones negativas hacia las personas con sobrepeso u obesidad que realiza una persona. Ambos fenómenos tienen consecuencias negativas sobre la salud, por lo que resulta necesario determinar cómo se relacionan estos fenómenos y como influyen en el desarrollo de sobrepeso u obesidad. Sin embargo, en México aún no se cuentan con instrumentos para evaluar estos constructos. De este modo, el objetivo del presente estudio fue validar el Inventario de Situaciones Estigmatizantes y la Escala de Actitudes Anti Obesidad para población mexicana. Una vez sometidas a un proceso de validación culturalmente pertinente, se obtuvieron dos escalas abreviadas y con adecuadas propiedades psicométricas. Asimismo, los factores obtenidos presentan correlaciones significativas y positivas, proveyendo de evidencias de validez convergente, y correlaciones positivas con el Índice de Masa Corporal, dotando a las escalas de evidencia de validez de criterio.
