Resumen Los objetivos de este trabajo fueron examinar la estructura factorial del CAF (Cuestionario de Autoconcepto Fisico) en un contexto distinto al de su creacion asi como averiguar las posibles relaciones de sus dimensiones con el rendimiento academico (global y en Educacion Fisica) y si este se puede predecir a partir de las mismas. Los participantes fueron 574 estudiantes de ESO de la Comunidad Valenciana. Se llevaron a cabo analisis factorial confirmatorio, correlacional y de vias. Los resultados obtenidos revelan que el CAF muestra adecuados indices de fiabilidad y de discriminacion, asi como unos indices de ajuste aceptables, aunque, el cuestionario logra un mejor ajuste y una mayor capacidad de discriminacion media si se elimina un elemento del mismo. Por otro lado, se encuentran relaciones positivas entre todas las dimensiones del cuestionario y el rendimiento en Educacion Fisica, y negativas entre algunas de las dimensiones y el rendimiento global. Abstract The objetives of this study were to examine the factorial structure of the CAF (Questionnaire of Physical Autoconcept) in a different context of it´s creation as well as to verify the possible relations of his dimensions with the academic performance (global and in Physical Education) and if it would be possible to predict from those ones. The participants were 574 students of ESO from Valencian Community. There was carried out the confirmatory factorial, correlacional and path analysis. The results obtained reveal that the CAF shows suitable indexes of reliability and average discrimination, as well as a few acceptable indexes of adjustment, though, the questionnaire achieves a better adjustment and a bigger capacity of discrimination if an element of the same one is avoided. On the other hand, they find positive relations between all the dimensions of the questionnaire and the performance in Physical Education, and negative between some of the dimensions and the global performance.
