This study focused on evaluating the psychometric properties of the Negative Acts Questionnaire-Revised (NAQ-R) in a sample of 10.148 teachers from Brazilian public schools. The NAQ-R, developed to measure exposure to workplace bullying, originally included 23 items but was later revised to 22. It assesses three factors of bullying: personal, work- related, and physically intimidating forms. The study employed a self-administered questionnaire issued via the Internet. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were performed, alongside assessment of convergent validity with the Self-Reporting Questionnaire-20 (SRQ-20), an instrument for screening common mental disorders. This study discovered a two-factor structure (personal bullying: α = .93, ω = .79; work-related bullying: α = .92, ω = .74). The NAQ-R showed adequate internal consistency and validity (RMSEArobust = .089, 90 % CI: .086 - .089, SRMR = .041, CFIrobust = .916, TLIrobust = .905), correlating positively with the SRQ-20. The findings align with international studies, suggesting the measure’s stability. 2024 artículo científico 1794-4724 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=79981852004 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/799/79981852004/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/799/79981852004/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/799/79981852004/79981852004.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/799/79981852004/movil 10.12804/revistas.urosario.edu.co/apl/a.14321 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=799 Avances en Psicología Latinoamericana application/pdf Universidad del Rosario Avances en Psicología Latinoamericana (Colombia) Num.2 Vol.42 |
