Zusammenfassung:In this study we present the results of the adaptation of the Adolescent Self-Regulatory Inventory (ASRI) to Portugal. The measure was used with two samples of high school students to which ASRI was administered with Self-Regulation Scale as control measure. In the first study the measures were administered to 823 adolescents and the construct validity analysis was assessed with exploratory factor analysis. The results allow us to find an adequate structure with proper psychometric properties, in their construct and content validity, and reliability. A second study involved 435 adolescents, being tested three models using confirmatory factor analyses. The final version of the ASRI-2 presents an acceptable fit of the data in construct and concurrent validity, given its moderate or high correlation with academic success and substance use. The implications of this new approach to the self-regulation study are discussed and directions to further studies are suggested. En este estudio se presentan los resultados de la adaptación del Inventario de Autorregulación en la Adolescencia (IARA) para Portugal. El instrumento fue administrado con dos muestras de estudiantes de secundarias públicas con la Escala de Autorregulación como medida de control. En el primer estudio, los instrumentos fueron testados con 823 adolescentes y la validez de constructo se evaluó con análisis factorial exploratorio. Los resultados indicaron una estructura apropiada con propiedades psicométricas adecuadas respecto a su validez de contenido y constructo y fidelidad. Un segundo estudio involucró 435 adolescentes, testando tres modelos con análisis factorial confirmatoria. La versión final del IARA-2 muestra valores de ajuste satisfactorios en términos de validez concurrente y de constructo, ante las correlaciones moderadas a altas con el éxito académico y uso de sustancias. Las implicaciones de este nuevo enfoque para el estudio de la autorregulación son discutidas y direcciones para futuros estudios son sugeridas.
