Annamaria Di Fabio, Alessio Gori
The aim of the present study is to examine the psychometric properties of the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) at work for using this instrument with a specific focus on the work context. The PANAS instrument was administered to 209 workers. Dimensionality, reliability and concurrent validity were analysed. Confirmatory factor analysis showed a structure with two dimensions. The internal consistency and the concurrent validity of the instrument were good. The results showed that the PANAS at work is a valid and reliable measure to evaluate positive and negative affects in relation to the specific work context.
