  • Spanish adaptation of the Behaviors Scale (PBS) Alejandro Magallares Cosimo Talò Psicología Scale Behaviors Participatory Machiavellianism Sense of community The aim of this study was to adapt the Participatory Behaviors Scale (PBS) and validate the results for use among the Spanish population. Using snowball sampling methodology, 501 individuals from all areas of Spain were selected to participate in the study. The Participatory Behaviors Scale (PBS) and questionnaires that measure a sense of community, belief in a just world and Machiavellianism were used to analyze the criterion validity of the adapted scale. A confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the items on the questionnaire fit a second-order model with four factors, which corresponded to the four dimensions proposed by the original authors, namely, disengagement, civil participation, formal political participation and activism. Additionally, it has been found that the scale is related to a sense of community, belief in a just world and Machiavellianism. In light of these results, we concluded that the questionnaire is methodologically valid and can be used by the scientific community to measure participatory behavior. 2016 artículo científico 1132-0559 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=179844973005 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1798/179844973005/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1798/179844973005/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1798/179844973005/179844973005.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1798/179844973005/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1798 Psychosocial Intervention application/pdf Colegio Oficial de Psicólogos de Madrid Psychosocial Intervention (España) Num.1 Vol.25
