| Summary: | The aim of the present study was to evaluate the psychometric properties and gender invariance of the Communication Skills Questionnaire (HABICOM). The sample consisted of 774 students from a state university in Arequipa. The factors were analyzed and confirmed as in the original study, obtaining satisfactory fit indices in its two subscales Personal Self-perception (c2 = 1977.683, gl = 499, p < .001; CFI = .945; TLI: .939; RMSEA = .061; SRMR = .042) and Professional Importance (c2 = 2534. 513, gl = 517, p < .001; CFI = .926; TLI = .919; RMSEA = .070; SRMR = .049) with adequate reliability indices on both subscales, for Personal Self-Perception (α = .63 and α = .85) and Professional Importance (α = .91 and α = .77) respectively. Gender invariance was adequate for the Personal Self-perception subscale; however, this did not occur for the Professional Importance subscale. The HABICOM questionnaire in general is adequate to measure communication skills in Peruvian university students.
