Resumen
ZITO, Margherita y COLOMBO, Lara. The Italian version of the Passion for Work Scale: First psychometric evaluations. Rev. psicol. trab. organ. [online]. 2017, vol.33, n.1, pp.47-53. ISSN 2174-0534. https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.rpto.2017.01.003.
Passion is a strong inclination toward an activity that people like and find important, characterized by harmonious passion and obsessive passion. This study aims to provide a psychometric evaluation of the Italian version of the Passion Scale developed by Vallerand and colleagues, applied to work. To assess the factorial validity of the Italian scale, an exploratory factor analysis (N = 101) and a confirmatory factor analysis (N = 234), along with correlations to assess the validity, were performed. The exploratory factor analysis revealed a two-factor structure, in line with the original study, and one item from the harmonious passion dimension was deleted. The confirmatory factor analysis that was conducted confirmed the two-factor structure. Results suggest that the Italian version of the Passion Scale applied to work can be used in research, allowing to detect an important individual factor influencing well-being and the quality of working life.
