We performed exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses and calculated goodness-of-fit indices were calculated; we assessed reliability by means of the Cronbach alpha and temporal stability and convergent validity through the intraclass correlation coefficient with scales used to assess psychological disorders and the specificity and sensitivity through ROC curves. <br/>Result(s): The factor analysis identified a 14-item scale with 3 factors, a comparative fit index of 0.93, a Tucker-Lewis index of 0.91 and a root mean square error of approximation of 0.07. the Cronbach alpha was 0.85 and the intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.66. The convergent validity was high for the correlation to the risk of depression (-0.69) and of anxiety (-0.60) and emotional changes (-0.59). The analysis of the ROC curves showed that a score of less than 81 would be indicative of suffering, with a sensitivity of 83.33% and a specificity of 93.48%. <br/>Conclusion(s): This study confirmed that the psychometric properties of the qESNA scale are good and the scale's usefulness as an instrument to detect emotional suffering in children with life-limiting or life-threatening illnesses in clinical practice.<br/>Copyright &#xa9; 2024 Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context <a href="http://doi.org/10.1016/j.anpedi.2024.07.005" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">10.1016/j.anpedi.2024.07.005</a> Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Article information provided for research and reference use only.
