ABSTRACT

This study aimed to analyze the psychometric properties of the Kudert test, developed to measure DISC behavioral styles in the work context. The sample consisted of 3371 Ecuadorian participants (1541 men and 1830 women), who took the test through an online platform. Given the dichotomous nature of the data, a robust diagonally least squares estimation method was used, with Promin rotation, based on a tetrachoric correlation matrix. A Confirmatory Factor Analysis was carried out with the AMOS statistical software and an Exploratory Analysis of Structural Equations with using FACTO. The goodness of fit of these models was evaluated using the comparative adjustment index, Tucker- Lewis index, mean square error of aproximation and weighted root mean square error, showing good fit in all the indicators of the Exploratory Structural Equation Model. The evidence of internal consistency using the ordinal alpha coefficient was greater than 0.75 in the four dimensions. Results suggest that a 41-item version provides sufficient information to measure DISC behavioral styles in Ecuadorian population. These findings constitute an important contribution that can serve as a basis for the development of a reduced inventory, based on the integration of new findings on the factor structure of the instrument in other populations.
