ABSTRACT
The aim of this study was to analyze the reliability, factorial structure
and validity indicators of the Couple Satisfaction Scale (ESP-10).
Couples satisfaction can be defined as the positive or negative selfevaluation
that the person performs over their current relationship.
This self-assessment will depend on the fulfillment of the needs and
expectations that the person has about what is a good relationship.
A total of 504 Puerto Rican adults (246 women and 258 men)
participated in this psychometric study. The results confirmed that
the ESP-10 has a one-dimensional structure (global value judgments
toward the relationship). A total of 10 items complied with the criteria
of discrimination. The reliability index obtained for the final version of
the scale was .91.
