Abstract

Background and Purpose: The aim of the study was to adapt and validate the Multidimensional Workaholism Scale to the cultural context of Brazil and assess its psychometric properties. Methods: A methodological study was conducted using the following steps: translation, reconciliation of translations, back-translation, expert committee review, pretest, and authors' review. The psychometric properties were then evaluated using goodness-of-fit indices, including the chi-square ratio to degrees of freedom (χ²/df), comparative fit index, goodness-of-fit index, Tucker-Lewis index, and root-mean-square error of approximation (RMSEA). Results: The Brazilian version of the Multidimensional Workaholism Scale showed excellent internal consistency (α = .95 and ω= 0.97), a four-dimension structure, and 60.85% of explained variance. Conclusions: The results showed the factor validity of the Brazilian version of the Multidimensional Workaholism Scale, confirming its reliability for measuring workaholism in Brazil.

多维工作狂量表在巴西公立大学护士教师中的验证。

背景和目的：本研究的目的是使多维工作狂量表适应和验证巴西的文化背景，并评估其心理测量特性。方法：采用翻译、译文比对、反译、专家委员会评审、前测、作者评审等步骤进行方法学研究。然后使用拟合优度指数评估心理测量特性，包括卡方自由度比（χ²/df）、比较拟合优度指数、塔克-刘易斯指数和近似均方根误差（RMSEA）。结果：巴西版多维工作狂量表具有良好的内部一致性（α = 0.95, ω= 0.97），具有四维结构，解释方差为60.85%。结论：结果显示巴西版多维工作狂量表的因素效度，证实了其在巴西测量工作狂的可靠性。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Nursing Measurement specifically addresses instrumentation in nursing. It serves as a prime forum for disseminating information on instruments, tools, approaches, and procedures developed or utilized for measuring variables in nursing research, practice, and education. Particular emphasis is placed on evidence for the reliability and validity or sensitivity and specificity of such instruments. The journal includes innovative discussions of theories, principles, practices, and issues relevant to nursing measurement.
