Abstract
DORDIO DIMAS, Isabel; LOURENCO, Paulo Renato and REBELO, Teresa. Scale of Satisfaction with the Working Group: Construction and Validation Studies. Av. Psicol. Latinoam. [online]. 2018, vol.36, n.1, pp.197-210. ISSN 1794-4724. https://doi.org/10.12804/revistas.urosario.edu.co/apl/a.5400.
This paper aims to describe the process of construction and study of the psychometric qualities of the Group Satisfaction Scale (ESAGT). In a first study (n = 321 members/77 teams) the internal structure of ESAGT was studied through Exploratory Factor Analysis. The results revealed a one-dimensional structure, which was confirmed by conducting a Confirmatory Factor Analysis on a second sample (n = 403 members/73 teams). In a third study, the nomological validity of ESAGT was evaluated (n = 471 members/75 teams), and the results revealed the presence of negative correlation with intragroup conflict and negative emotions and a positive correlation with positive emotions. The reliability of ESAGT was evaluated and provided specific values in the three studies.
