Resumen

In the field of sports psychology, the influence of mood states on athletic performance has been a topic of research in recent decades and given the importance of having valid and reliable tools in the Peruvian context, the present study aimed to translate and analyze the validity, reliability, and sex invariance of the BRUMS Mood Scale in Peruvian athletes. The sample consisted of 377 university athletes from different sports disciplines, with ages ranging from 18 to 24 years, and a mean age of 20.60 years (SD = 1.94), with 64.5% being male and 35.5% female. The BRUMS Mood Scale test was used. The findings of this research on the mood scale for university sports have shown that this instrument is reliable and valid for assessing emotional states in this comparable setting for young men and women. The studies on content validity, structure, and reliability corroborate the quality and uniformity of the instrument in the Peruvian context. © Copyright 2018
