Abstract

Background: Harmful work patterns have become a public health problem. These conditions are worrying since they can have an impact on mental health, social conflicts, and physical difficulties due to their normalization of pathological behaviors related to work addiction.

Aims: (1) determine the psychometric properties and reliability of the DUWAS and (2) evaluate valid comparisons at the construct level.

Methods: The Spanish version of DUWAS was used. For the evaluation of the psychometric model, 446 Peruvian workers responded to the Spanish version (60.5% women aged 18 to 65, M = 35.1 SD = 12.45).

Results: The unidimensional version was confirmed (x² = 67.495₍₁₄₎; CFI = 0.96; TLI = 0.95; SRMR = 0.050 and RMSEA = 0.069). The reliability was acceptable (α = 0.735; 95% CI: 0.706 - 0.762; ω = 0.741; 95% CI: 0.712 - 0.767) and measurement invariance was confirmed for sex and age groups. Concurrent validity was mostly identified with mental health indicators.

Conclusion: This study provides new information on dimensionality and the realization of valid comparisons that allow its use in Spanish-speaking workers.

回应荷兰工作成瘾量表中的老问题：秘鲁样本的心理测量方法。

背景：有害的工作方式已经成为一个公共卫生问题。这些情况令人担忧，因为他们可能会对精神健康产生影响，社会冲突，以及由于与工作成瘾相关的病理行为正常化而导致的身体困难。目的：(1)确定DUWAS的心理测量特性和信度；(2)评估构念水平上的有效比较。方法：采用西班牙语版DUWAS。对于心理测量模型的评估，446名秘鲁工人回应了西班牙语版本（60.5%的女性年龄在18至65岁，M = 35.1 SD = 12.45）。结果：单元化版本得到确认(x2 = 67.495(14)；cfi = 0.96；tli = 0.95；SRMR = 0.050, RMSEA = 0.069)。信度可接受(α = 0.735；95% ci: 0.706 - 0.762；ω = 0.741；95% CI: 0.712 - 0.767)，性别和年龄组的测量不变性得到证实。同时效度主要与心理健康指标一致。结论：本研究提供了关于维度的新信息，并实现了有效的比较，允许其在讲西班牙语的工人中使用。
