ADAPTACIÓN Y VALIDACIÓN DEL CUESTIONARIO DE SUPERVISIÓN ABUSIVA DE TEPPER (SAT) EN EMPLEADOS DE LA REGIÓN DE ARICA Y PARINACOTA

The purpose of this study was to adapt and obtain evidence of validity of the Tepper Abusive Supervision questionnaire (TAS) for use in adult workers in Arica, Chile. An instrumental cross-sectional design was used, with a sample of 287 participants from private companies in the city. Reliability estimates were performed by means of McDonald’s omega hierarchical coefficient and Cronbach’s alpha and validity evidence was obtained based on the internal structure of the test, by means of confirmatory factor analysis. The results showed that the debugged dichotomous version provides adequate comparative and absolute fit indicators (RMSEA =.04; CFI =.99; TLI =.98), with adequate levels of reliability (α =.87; ω =.88). It is concluded that the Tepper Abusive Supervision questionnaire (TAS) shows adequate psychometric properties for the measurement of abusive supervision in equivalent samples of working adults.
