The Measure of Insight into Cognition-Self Report (MIC-SR) is a widely used 12-item questionnaire that assesses the perceived frequency of cognitive impairment in the domains of executing functioning, attention, and memory. However, the MIC-SR is not available in Spanish, one of the most widely spoken languages worldwide. The present study aimed to provide a Spanish version of the MIC-SR and examine its psychometric properties in psychosis-risk and non-clinical Mexican young adults. Methods: The sample comprised 621 participants who completed a battery of self-report measures via an online survey. Of the participants, 478 were non-clinical, and 143 met the screening criteria for a clinical high-risk for psychosis (CHR-positive). Results: Confirmatory Factor Analyses supported a one-factor model, consistent with the findings for the original MIC-SR. The results showed adequate fit indices for the general model and the independent models for both groups, with high Cronbach's alpha coefficients. Furthermore, the CHR-positive group showed more frequent subjective cognitive problems on each of the 12 items, higher total scores, and higher average frequency than the non-clinical group. Conclusion: To our knowledge, this is the first translation of the MIC-SR into Spanish. Using the MIC-SR at the CHR stage may contribute to our understanding of cognitive processes associated with the onset of a psychotic disorder and provide valuable information in the context of detection and early intervention efforts.PDFengAcceso CerradoArtículo1751-7893Instituto Nacional de Psiquiatría Ramón de la Fuente MuñizAustraliaAwarenessCognitive symptomsInsightNeurocognitionPsychosis risk
