https://doi.org/10.24879/201600100020062Resumo
Este estudo se tratou de validação fatorial do Memorial University of Newfoundland Scale of Happiness (MUNSH) para adolescentes brasileiros. Participaram 1864 adolescentes de 12 a 20 anos, residentes no norte de Minas Gerais, Brasil. Foi realizada uma análise fatorial confirmatória visando a avaliar a estrutura fatorial da escala de bem-estar subjetivo para os jovens no contexto brasileiro. Os indicadores psicométricos se revelaram próximos aos exigidos pela literatura sobre modelagem estrutural, garantindo a confirmação do construto avaliado. Os resultados apresentados pelo modelo
fatorial proposto evidenciaram uma excelente robustez da estrutura tetrafatorial, a qual, organizou-se em quatro fatores: Afeto Positivo, Afeto Negativo, Experiências Negativas e Experiências Positivas. Organização esta, previamente esperada. Considerando a evidência de validade fatorial e consistência interna da escala, sugere o seu emprego no contexto brasileiro para pesquisas com jovens relacionado ao bem-estar subjetivo.
