MARTINEZ LABRIN, Soledad; BIVORT, Bruno  and  SANDOVAL DIAZ, José. Psychometric analysis of the Female Teleworking Perception Scale during situations of family confinement: the case of COVID-19. Revista de Psicologia [online]. 2024, n.31, pp.39-52. ISSN 2223-3032.  https://doi.org/10.53287/jjhi5723ek84u.

The study examines the psychometric characteristics of a scale that measures the perception of female teleworking in the Chilean population in a situation of family confinement, built during the COVID-19 pandemic. The questionnaire explores the interaction between the spheres of work and family, specifically focusing on mental health, attitudes towards female teleworking, family dynamics related to female teleworking, and work dynamics in the context of female teleworking during the pandemic. The results indicate strong internal coherence both for the global scale and for its four differentiated dimensions: Mental Health, work environment, female teleworking and family environment. The exploratory factor analysis (EFA) reveals favorable adjustment indices df = 17; p<0.183; χ 2 /df = 22.211; CFI = 0.995; NNFI = 0.983; RMSEA = 0.052 for the 12 items in the four dimensions, aligning well with the theoretical structure supporting the foundations of the work/family balance construct.

Keywords : Teleworking for women; Work-life balance; Instrument validation; Exploratory factor analysis; COVID-19.
