Chile is officially the republic of Chile. I think the official language must be Spanish and I believe that the pronunciation of Spanish in Chile is fairly distinct from that in other Spanish speaking countries. Wikipedia tells me that there are “several indigenous languages spoken in Chile: Mapudungun, Aymara, Rapa Nui, Chilean Sign Language and (barely surviving) Qawasqar and Yaghan, along with non-indigenous German, Italian, English, Greek and Quechua.”
I helped a little (enough for legitimate co-authorship!) on a very thorough paper from colleagues in Chile that explores the quantitative psychometrics of the Spanish CORE-OM in Chile with very good findings: Errázuriz, A., Passi Solar, A., Beltrán, R., Paz, C., Evans, C., & De La Parra, G. (2024). Psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the Clinical Outcomes in Routine Evaluation Outcome Measure (CORE-OM) in Chile. Psychotherapy Research, 1–13. https://doi.org/10.1080/10503307.2024.2356195. I don’t think that’s open access so do contact me if you want a copy.
The official languages of Uruguay are Spanish and Uruguayan sign language. We believe that the Spanish translation of the CORE-OM is good for Uruguay and it is in use there:
Dogmanas, D., Arias, M. A., Gago, F., De Álava, L., & Roussos, A. (2022). Implementation of a psychological treatment outcomes evaluation system for young people at Uruguay’s National Health System: Using CORE‐OM. Counselling and Psychotherapy Research, 22(4), 946–957. https://doi.org/10.1002/capr.12579.
However, if the YP-CORE is wanted for use in Uruguay, work centred in Ecuador but involving colleagues from many other Latin American countries has led us to recommend that a modified Spanish translation of the YP-CORE be used rather than the translation done in Spain, see:
Valdiviezo-Oña, J., Ortiz-Mancheno, N., Valdivieso-Arias, G., Erazo-Pérez, D., Rodríguez-Lorenzana, A., Evans, C., & Paz, C. (2024). Assessing the suitability and psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the YP-CORE for adolescents in Latin America: A study in Ecuador. BMC Psychology, 12(1), 671. https://doi.org/10.1186/s40359-024-02169-8 (open access).
