Adaptación de pruebas, desenganche moral, análisis factorial, validez, confiabilidadResumen
Se adaptó la Escala de Propensión a la Desconexión Moral (EPDM) (Moore et al., 2012) al contexto laboral boliviano. Para ello 777 bolivianos adultos activos recibieron la EPDM en línea. Los hallazgos permitieron demostrar la confiabilidad de la escala en una forma abreviada en español y obtener fuentes adicionales de evidencia de validez (convergente, discriminante y factorial exploratorio y confirmatorio). Se obtuvo un ajuste del constructo de desconexión moral propuesto por los autores originales que pareció representar mejor, aunque de forma diferente, 4 de los factores propuestos por la teoría. Finalmente, se discute la relevancia de los resultados y se identifican las limitaciones del estudio.
