    En este trabajo se presenta la adaptación española de la versión reducida multicanal del Perfil de Sensibilidad No Verbal (MiniPONS) (Bänziger, Scherer, Hall y Rosenthal, 2011). Esta escala evalúa las diferen-cias individuales en la habilidad para reconocer emociones, actitudes inter-personales y comunicación de intenciones por canales no verbales. Esta versión multicanal reducida está compuesta por 64 estímulos no verbales de vídeo y/o audio que representan a una mujer en blanco y negro. El princi-pal objetivo de este estudio es analizar las propiedades psicométricas del MiniPONS empleando para ello una amplia muestra de participantes (N = 1154) de entre 18 a 60 años, también se examinaron las diferencias en la sensibilidad no verbal en función del sexo y la edad. Se presentan los valo-res normativos, la fiabilidad y validez en tres estudios con 168, 254 y 1154 estudiantes universitarios. Los resultados muestran que las mujeres obtie-nen mejores puntuaciones en todas las condiciones estimulares, éstas no sólo procesan más eficientemente información emocional no verbal por ca-nales unisensoriales (rostro, cuerpo, voz), si no que también la integran me-jor. Los resultados indican que la versión española del MiniPONS presenta unas propiedades psicométricas similares a la escala original, mostrando moderada consistencia interna y fiabilidad test-retest, así como también una razonable validez convergente obtenida en las correlaciones con otras pruebas que evalúan la capacidad de reconocimiento emocional. Se conclu-ye que la versión española del MiniPONS es un instrumento que evalúa adecuadamente la sensibilidad no verbal. Se discuten las limitaciones y po-tencial utilidad de la escala.

    The Spanish version of the MiniPONS (Bänziger, Scherer, Hall y Rosenthal, 2011), the short version multichannel of the Profile of Nonver-bal Sensitivity (PONS), is presented. This scale was designed to measure individual differences in the ability to recognize emotions, interpersonal at-titudes, and communicative intentions in nonverbal channels. This short multichannel version is composed of 64 items nonverbal audio and/or vis-ual scenes portrayed by a female in black and white color. The main aim of this study was to analyze the psychometric properties of MiniPONS using a large sample of university students (N = 1154) aged 18-60, this study also examined gender and age differences in nonverbal sensitivity. Normative data, reliability and validity were examined in three studies with 168, 254, and 1154 university students. The Spanish version of the MiniPONS has psychometric properties similar to those of the original version, the MiniPONS had moderate internal consistency and test-retest reliability, and shows reasonable convergent validity through significant correlations with other tests of non-verbal emotion recognition ability. Results revealed an advantage of women in all the conditions of stimulus presentation; women not only process more efficiently unisensory nonverbal information (face, body and voice) but may also be better at integrating emotional expres-sions. We conclude that the MiniPONS Spanish version is an adequate in-strument to be used in measure of socio-nonverbal sensitivity. Limitations and potential applications for research are described.
