Method: The sample was composed of 622 Peruvian young people and adults who answered CAS. The structural evaluation was conducted with confirmatory factor analysis. Factorial invariance was used to verify the equivalence by sex and age. Results: The unifactorial model revealed good fit indexes χ²(5) = 12.40, CFI = .998, TLI = .996, RMSEA = .049, SRMR = .033.  Also, the internal consistency using McDonald´s Omega coefficient was high (ω > .80). The factorial invariance indicated that the unifactorial structure is stable according to age. Conclusion: The Peruvian version of the CAS has evidence to be considered an accurate, valid, and invariant measure and the results support the unifactorial model.Introducción: El objetivo del estudio fue la traducción al español y el análisis de las propiedades psicométricas de la Coronavirus Anxiety Scale (CAS). Método: La muestra estuvo conformada por 622 jóvenes y adultos peruanos a quienes se les administró la CAS. El análisis estructural se realizó con el análisis factorial confirmatorio y se efectuó además un análisis de la invarianza de la medición para comprobar la equivalencia por sexo y edad Resultados: Se obtuvo un ajuste adecuado al analizar el modelo unifactorial de la escala χ²(5) = 12.40, CFI = .998, TLI = .996, RMSEA = .049,  SRMR = .033.  Asimismo, se encuentra una alta consistencia interna al emplearse el coeficiente omega de McDonald (ω > .80). La invarianza factorial indicó que la estructura unifactorial es estable considerando la edad. Conclusión: La versión peruana de la CAS presenta evidencia para ser considerada una medida precisa, válida e invariante y los resultados se encuentran a favor de una estructura unifactorial.Instituto Peruano de Orientación Psicológica2020-08-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://www.ojs.revistainteracciones.com/index.php/rin/article/view/15910.24016/2020.v6n2.159Interacciones; Vol. 6, Núm. 2 (2020): Mayo - Agosto; e159Interacciones; Vol. 6, Núm. 2 (2020): May - August; e159Interacciones: Revistas de Avances en Psicología; Vol. 6, Núm. 2 (2020): May - August; e1592411-59402413-4465reponame:Interaccionesinstname:Instituto Peruano de Orientación Psicológicainstacron:IPOPSspahttps://www.ojs.revistainteracciones.com/index.php/rin/article/view/159/219https://www.ojs.revistainteracciones.com/index.php/rin/article/view/159/225Copyright (c) 2020 Interaccioneshttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs3114.ejournals.host:article/1592020-09-14T17:09:36Z
