Resumo: Introduction: An indisputable consequence has to do with the psychological impact of theCOVID-19 pandemic on health professionals and students. In Cuba, these psychologicalmanifestations have scarcely been investigated, and there are no reports in the dentalundergraduate program. Objective: To analyze the evidence of validity and reliability of ascale of depression, anxiety and stress in Cuban dental students in the context of COVID-19. Materials and Methods: An instrumental and cross-sectional study was carried out,which included students of all years and Cuban universities. A documentary measurementinstrument was validated, using its main psychometric evidence. Convergent validity wasanalyzed and reliability was estimated using Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Results: 301students were included, of which 74.09% were women and whose ages ranged from 17 to30 years. The asymmetry and kurtosis values of all items were adequate (> ± 1.5). Theconfirmatory factorial analysis showed that the factorial structure of 21 items distributed in3 factors is satisfactory. The goodness of fit indices was satisfactory. The scale factors aredirectly and significantly related. With Cronbach's α coefficient, the scale scores wereestimated to be reliable. Conclusions: the depression, anxiety and stress scale (DASS-21)in Cuban dental students in the context of COVID-19 turned out to be valid and reliable, inaddition to allowing the evaluation of the dimensions of these three factors in this sector ofthe society.

Objetivo: Analisar as evidências de validade e confiabilidade de um escala de depressão, ansiedade e estresse em estudantes de odontologia cubanos no contexto do COVID-19. Materiais e Métodos: Foi realizado um estudo transversal e instrumental, que incluiu estudantes de todos os anos e universidades cubanas.

A validade convergente era analisadas e a confiabilidade estimada pelo coeficiente alfa de Cronbach.

Os valores de assimetria e curtose de todos os itens foram adequados (> ± 1,5). o a análise fatorial confirmatória mostrou que a estrutura fatorial de 21 itens distribuídos em 3 fatores é satisfatório. Os índices de qualidade de ajuste foram satisfatórios. Os fatores de escala são diretamente e significativamente relacionados. Com o coeficiente α de Cronbach, os escores da escala foram estimado para ser confiável. Conclusões: a escala de depressão, ansiedade e estresse (DASS-21) em estudantes cubanos de odontologia no contexto do COVID-19 revelou-se válido e confiável, em além de permitir a avaliação das dimensões desses três fatores neste setor de a sociedade.SciELO PreprintsSciELO PreprintsSciELO Preprints2021-12-06info:eu-repo/semantics/preprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/preprint/view/330810.1590/SciELOPreprints.3308enghttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/article/view/3308/5941Copyright (c) 2021 Jose Daniel Villegas-Maestre, Elys María Pedraza-Rodríguez, Ibraín Enrique Corrales-Reyes, Renzo Felipe Carranza-Esteban, Oscar Javier Mamani-Benitohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessVillegas-Maestre, Jose DanielPedraza-Rodríguez, Elys MaríaCorrales-Reyes, Ibraín EnriqueCarranza-Esteban, Renzo FelipeMamani-Benito, Oscar Javierreponame:SciELO Preprintsinstname:SciELOinstacron:SCI2021-12-01T04:28:29Zoai:ops.preprints.scielo.org:preprint/3308Servidor de preprintshttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scieloONGhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/oaiscielo.submission@scielo.orgopendoar:2021-12-01T04:28:29SciELO Preprints - SciELOfalse
