VIEIRA DE FIGUEIREDO, Camilla et al. A Scale of Beliefs on the Use of Questionnaires in Scientific Research: Preliminary Psychometric Evidence. Divers.: Perspect. Psicol. [online]. 2022, vol.18, n.1, pp.146-159. Epub 01-Jan-2022. ISSN 1794-9998. https://doi.org/10.15332/22563067.5874.
The purpose of this work was to create the Scale of Beliefs on the Use of Questionnaires in Scientific Research by gathering evidence of content validity and verifying its initial indicators of factorial validity and internal consistency for the Brazilian context. Two studies were carried out. In the first study, the items of the questionnaire were elaborated and the validity of their content was verified. Four judges specialized in Social Psychology and Psychometrics evaluated the set of items as appropriate to the construct and semantically clear to the target audience. In the second study, we sought to determine the factorial structure of the questionnaire. Thus, 307 students (M = 25.1 years) participated and answered the questionnaire and demographic questions. The results indicated that the questionnaire has satisfactory indexes of factorial validity and internal consistency. Therefore, it is believed to be a promising instrument and can be used in future studies in Brazil.
