Aims: To confirm the one-dimensional factor structure of the General Self-Efficacy Scale (EAG), verify its reliability in ecuadorian adolescents and young people, as well as its validity. Method: The research is quantitative and instrumental, which analyzes the factor structure, reliability and validity of EAG. Sample: 742 teenagers and young adults, students from educational centers in Ambato and Pelileo cities from Ecuador. Results: At the factorial level, the EAG with a single factor explains 52.1% of the variance with an optimal adjustment X² = 82,06; df= 28; p<,001; X²/df= 2,93; GFI=,96; NFI=,93; CFI=,96; SRMR=,04; RMSEA=,06; IC 90% [,05-,08]. It is also reliable for young α=,896 and teenagers α= 0,876 and valid with procrastination tests. Conclusions: The EAG is presented like a standardized test for teenagers and young ecuadorian people, in addition to being reliable and valid for use in research.
