MESQUITA RESENDE, Marília; BARREIROS PORTO, Juliana; GRACIA, Francisco J. y TOMAS, Inés. Adaptation and evidence of validity of the Corporate Ethical Virtues Scale in Brazil: A measure of ethical culture in organisations. rev.latinoam.psicol. [online]. 2022, vol.54, pp.23-32. Epub 05-Abr-2022. ISSN 0120-0534. https://doi.org/10.14349/rlp.2022.v54.3.
Introduction:
Ethical culture stands out as an important variable in comprehending ethical norms and ethical behaviour at work. The Corporate Ethical Virtues (CEV) Scale is a widely used measure of ethical culture in organisations. This study aimed to adapt and validate the CEV Scale to a Brazilian context.
Method:
In Study 1 (n = 1.219), the CEV Scale was translated and adapted, the reliability and the internal structure were tested and the discriminant validity of ethical climate measures was demonstrated. In Study 2 (n = 635), measurement invariance in two groups was demonstrated, and there was evidence of validity based on the relationships with related constructs.
Results:
The results indicated that the Brazilian version of the CEV Scale showed reasonable psychometric properties and provided evidence of convergent and discriminant validity.
Conclusion:
This measure can be used by managers and consultants to diagnose ethical organisational culture.
