Abstract

This manuscript shows the results of the evidence of content and internal structure obtained from an instrument to measure work engagement. This instrument is aimed at workers of Colombian labor organizations that belong to different economic sectors (commerce, services, education, and health). The instrument was designed based on the postulates of cognitive theory and is structured into three factors that operationalize the construct: (a) behavioral dimension (15 items), (b) affective dimension (16 items), and (c) cognitive dimension (14 items), for a total of 45 items. The results of the content evidence through expert judgment suggested the elimination of three items, due to ambiguity and lack of clarity, leaving the 42item test. After this evidence, the instrument was piloted in a sample of 460 participants. The item-test correlation analysis recommended the elimination of one item due to its low correlation with the factor. The evidence of internal structure through exploratory factor analysis (EFA) proposed a three-factor structure, with an explained variance of 63%; 9 items were eliminated due to high residual. The fit indicators showed a GFI = .99; and those of residual showed a RMSR =.03 and Kelley = .04; each factor obtained an ordinal Cronbach's Alpha of .95 (behavioral), .97 (affective), and .87 (cognitive). These results indicate precision in the measurement and consistency of the items to measure each of the factors.

工作投入量表:结构效度和信度在哥伦比亚组织情境下。
这份手稿显示了从测量工作投入的仪器中获得的内容和内部结构证据的结果。该文书的对象是属于不同经济部门(商业、服务、教育和卫生)的哥伦比亚劳工组织的工人。该工具是根据认知理论的假设设计的,并分为三个因素来实现结构:(a)行为维度(15个项目),(b)情感维度(16个项目)和(c)认知维度(14个项目),共45个项目。经专家判断的内容证据结果建议剔除3项,因歧义和不够清晰,留下42项测试。在此证据之后,该仪器在460名参与者的样本中试用。项目检验相关分析建议取消一个项目,因为它与因素的相关性较低。探索性因子分析(EFA)对内部结构的证据提出了三因素结构,解释方差为63%;9项因残留高淘汰。拟合指标GFI = 0.99;残差的RMSR =。03和Kelley = .04;每个因素的顺序Cronbach's Alpha分别为0.95(行为)、0.97(情感)和0.87(认知)。这些结果表明测量的精度和测量每个因素的项目的一致性。
