BLANCH, Josep M.; SAHAGUN, Miguel e CERVANTES, Genís. Factor Structure of Working Conditions Questionnaire. Rev. psicol. trab. organ. [online]. 2010, vol.26, n.3, pp.175-189. ISSN 2174-0534.
The Working Conditions Survey was designed and applied as a tool for assessing psychosocial components of work environment in serving people organizations. 1252 professionals of health care (medical and nursing) and of higher education respectively employed in hospitals and in universities from several Latin American countries, answered this questionnaire. This tool includes series of closed items organized according to a theoretical model that configures working conditions around a three-way relationship of the organization with the method, with the environment and with the person. A principal component analysis showed the existence of six factors in the questionnaire, grouped in three pairs of scales, all showing a remarkable internal consistency with high Cronbach's α values. The psychometric study indicates that the questionnaire faithfully reproduces the structure of the proposed theoretical model.
