| Summary: | The US-Mexico border has received large migratory groups from the
center and south of the country, as well as from Central American
countries. Migra.nts are considered a vulnerable group to HIV acquisition
as they r~p?rt ~lg~ rates of high-risk sexual behavior. It is necessary to
have empirical indicators specialized in this population and adapted to its
cultural context that allows us to know important aspects of its behavior
such as sexual nature. This work aimed is to test the reliability and validity
of the ~afer Sex Behavior Questionnaire (SSBQ) adapted for the migrant
populat.lOn. We use focal groups and a sample of 311 migrants for the
adap.tatlOn translation and back-translation of the questionnaire. The
modified q~estionnaire presented a Cronbach's Alpha of 0.76, the KaiserMeyer-Olkin
(KMO) sample adequacy = 0.738, Bartlett's sphericity test
(X2 ': 1635.5.44; gl = 276, P < 0.000), and factor analysis with varimax
rotauon for .flve factors resulted in good sc<?resand explained 46.97% of
the to.tal va.flance. Therefore, it can be concluded that the adaptation of the
questionnaire for the migrant population is valid and reliable.
