The validity evidence was assessed based on the content using Aiken’s coefficient V according to the internal structure through a confirmatory factor analysis, and reliability was calculated through Cronbach’s alpha coefficient. The expert judgment was favorable for all items (V > 0.70). The unidimensional structure of the scale was confirmed (χ2 = 10.86, df = 5, p = 0.05; RMR = 0.020; GFI = 0.980; CFI = 0.990; TLI = 0.980 y RMSEA = 0.080), and it presents a suitable reliability range (α = > 0.75). This shows that the WHO
