Psychometric analysis of PANAS in Brazil

Abstract

La Escala de Afectos Positivos y Afectos Negativos (PANAS) es hoy uno de los instrumentos más utilizados en la investigación de estados afectivos, tanto en adultos como en niños. El presente estudio fue realizado con el objetivo de evaluar, desde el punto de vista psicométrico, una versión brasileña de esa escala en una muestra nacional. Además de las propiedades psicométricas, se evaluó la validez convergente del instrumento. En total, participaron de esta investigación 2648 estudiantes universitarios, matriculados en los cursos de Psicología e Ingeniería de una universidad privada, en 15 ciudades brasileñas respondiendo al cuestionario electrónico disponible en Internet. Los participantes respondieron a la Escala Analógica Visual de Bienestar Psicológico (FACES), la Escala de Felicidad Subjetiva (SHS) y la Escala Índice de Salud Mental (MHI-5). Los resultados de los análisis indican que el PANAS presenta propiedades psicométricas satisfactorias que autorizan su utilización en Brasil.

A Escala de Afetos Positivos e Afetos Negativos (PANAS) é hoje um dos instrumentos mais utilizados na investigação de estados afetivos, tanto em adultos quanto em crianças. O presente estudo foi realizado com o objetivo de avaliar, do ponto de vista psicométrico, uma versão brasileira dessa escala em uma amostra nacional. Além das propriedades psicométricas, foi ainda avaliada a validade convergente do instrumento. Ao todo, participaram desta pesquisa 2648 estudantes universitários, matriculados nos cursos de Psicologia e Engenharia de uma universidade particular, em 15 cidades brasileiras respondendo ao questionário eletrônico disponibilizado na Internet. Os participantes responderam ainda a Escala Analógica Visual de Bem-estar Psicológico (FACES), a Escala de Felicidade Subjetiva (SHS) e a Escala Índice de Saúde Mental (MHI-5). Os resultados das análises indicam que a PANAS apresenta propriedades psicométricas satisfatórias que autorizam sua utilização no Brasil.

The Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) is presently one of the most used instruments in the investigation of affective states, both in adults and children. The present study was carried out with the objective of evaluating, from the psychometric point of view, a Brazilian version of this scale in a national sample. Besides the psychometric properties, the convergent validity of the instrument was also evaluated. Altogether, 2648 university students enrolled in the Psychology and Engineering courses of a private university participated in this research, in 15 Brazilian cities, responding to the electronic questionnaire made available on the Internet. Participants also answered the Visual Analogue Scale of Psychological Well-being (FACES), the Subjective Happiness Scale (SHS) and the Mental Health Index Scale (MHI-5). The analysis of the results indicates that PANAS presents satisfactory psychometric properties that authorize its use in Brazil.
