Resumen

El principal objetivo de este trabajo es analizar las propiedades psicométricas y estructurafactorial de la adaptación castellana (González y De Elena, 1993) del cuestionario de implicación en el trabajo de Lodhal y Kejner (1965). El examen de la escala se lleva a cabo a par-tir de las respuestas de una muestra de 83 empleados de la administración y en función detres tipos de análisis. En primer lugar, se analiza la homogeneidad y fiabilidad de los 20ítems que componen el cuestionario. Los resultados muestran una buena consistencia internade la escala con un coeficiente αde .87. Por otra parte, se realiza un estudio de la estructurafactorial de la escala por medio del análisis factorial exploratorio. De acuerdo con los resulta-dos obtenidos puede afirmarse que la implicación en el trabajo evaluada por medio de laadaptación castellana del cuestionario de implicación de Lodhal y Kejner (1965) presenta una estructura multidimensional compuesta básicamente por tres dimensiones que coinciden básicamente con las descritas en la escala original. Finalmente, los resultados evidencian que el cuestionario presenta correlaciones significativas y del signo esperado con los criterios consi-derados lo que aporta apoyo empírico a la validez de constructo de la versión castellana delcuestionario de implicación en el trabajo
