Desenvolvimento e Validação
Palabras clave:
Escalas de significado do dinheiro, Psicologia do dinheiro, Psicologia econômicaResumen
A carência de instrumentos de mensuração confiáveis tem atrasado o desenvolvimento da pesquisa psicológica sobre dinheiro e fenómenos relacionados. O objetivo deste trabalho foi desenvolver e validar uma Escala de Significado do Dinheiro. Para desenvolver a escala, dados preliminares foram coletados com amostra heterogénea de 61 sujeitos e organizados através de procedimento incluindo análises de conteúdo, combinatória, semântica e de juízes. A compreensão teórica baseou-se em referencial das ciências sociais, resultando em um modelo hipotético com 10 fatores. A escala foi validada em amostra heterogénea com 1.464 sujeitos de todas as regiões brasileiras. Os resultados apontaram uma estrutura multifatorial ortogonal, confirmada separadamente para homens e mulheres, e constituída por 9 componentes: os alpha de Cronbach variaram entre 0,70 e 0,88 para 6 componentes; os demais foram 0,66, 0,67 e 0,57. Comparada aos estudos anteriores, esta escala apresenta avanços e abre novas possibilidades para pesquisas psicológicas em temas relacionados a dinheiro.
