The objective was to determine the psychometric properties of the F-COPES in the Colombian population. Cross-sectional study, with 1373 people, aged between 18 and 84 years. Data were analyzed in Jasp, exploratory factor analyzes were performed using the weighted least squares estimation method and a promax-type oblique rotation. Confirmatory factor analyzes with diagonalized weighted least squares estimators and robust analysis methods. Internal consistency analysis using Cronbach’s Alpha indices, McDonald’s Omega, and the highest lower limit index. A structure of five factors was found, four original ones: finding social support, cognitive restructuring, finding spiritual support and passive evaluation, and a new one: neighbor support. The scale evaluates family functioning in crisis situations in the Colombian context.

Nascent entrepreneurs, individuals in the initial stages of establishing new business ventures, play a crucial role in both the economy and society. By focusing on personality and workplace dynamics this study analyzes the antecedents of individual's intention to embark on entrepreneurship by using survey data from 1497 employees across nine Latin American countries including Argentina, Peru, Mexico, Chile, Ecuador, Colombia, Bolivia, Cuba, and Brazil. Our cross-cultural results reveal that a higher presence of all three components of Dark Triad traits—Machiavellianism, psychopathy, and narcissism—significantly enhances an employee's inclination toward entrepreneurship. Additionally, workers who have higher scores in these three traits perceive themselves as being ostracized or marginalized in the workplace due to their personality characteristics. This perception, in turn, makes the...
