A two-phase quantitative study with university students was carried out: phase one included an instrumental research oriented to the construction and evaluation of a scale of PSW; phase two consisted of an ex post facto study with simple retrospective design. After ratifying the psychometric qualities of the constructed scale, a multiple regression analysis was performed.
