MILLAN, Anthony; DIAFERIA, Luciana; ACOSTA, Marian  e  D’AUBETERRE, María Eugenia. Comparison of Psychometric Properties of NAQ-R and LIPT-60 in a Sample of Venezuelan Workers. CES Psicol [online]. 2016, vol.9, n.2, pp.40-67. ISSN 2011-3080.  https://doi.org/10.21615/cesp.9.2.4.

Mobbing is a type of intimidation into the workplace, and it cannot be directly measured from a psychometric view. The administration of different scales aims indirectly to predict their impact on workers’ health. These scales are: Mobbing-UNIPSICO Scale, NAQ, LIPT, HPT, EAPA-T, CISNEROS, among others; The LIPT-60 (60-item version) is used in Venezuela, but due to the fact this scale has presented methodological flaws, its psychometric properties were re-evaluated and compared with those of the NAQ (R version), another instrument commonly used to measure mobbing (vertical type), in order to determine which of these scales is more reliable to make a diagnosis. While the outcome of the construct validity indicates that there is a better fit in the factorial structure of the NAQ-R, we concluded that a shorter version of LIPT (45 items) is more accurate to make a diagnosis, since it predicts better the various indicators of psychological health at work and also presents better indicators of internal consistency.
