Se analizó la equivalencia funcional del instrumento. Se administró una versión adaptada a una muestra de 396 empleados, quienes respondieron también una selección de instrumentos para explorar confianza en la organización, compromiso organizacional y satisfacción laboral. El análisis factorial exploratorio mostró una estructura de tres factores que explicaron el 68.8% de la varianza total. El análisis factorial confirmatorio condujo a re-especificar el modelo, eliminando tres ítems. La validez de constructo quedó demostrada en base a los análisis de correlación efectuados. La confiabilidad del instrumento alcanzó niveles satisfactorios. Se puntualizan las debilidades y fortalezas de la investigación realizada. Se sugiere una agenda para futuros estudios.Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú2014-11-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://revistas.pucp.edu.pe/index.php/psicologia/article/view/1095310.18800/psico.201402.007Revista de Psicología; Vol. 32 Núm. 2 (2014); 357-3862223-37330254-9247reponame:Revistas - Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perúinstname:Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perúinstacron:PUCPspahttp://revistas.pucp.edu.pe/index.php/psicologia/article/view/10953/11463info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:revistaspuc:article/109532020-03-10T18:50:38Z
