Abstract
LEIBOVICH DE FIGUEROA, Nora; INJOQUE-RICLE, Irene and SCHUFER, Marta. Assessment Of Job Instability As A Psychosocial Stressor In Work Contexts. Anu. investig. [online]. 2008, vol.15. ISSN 1851-1686.
Job Instability appears as a psychosocial stressor in work contexts and it is imperative to assess its impact among workers. Results of an exploratory factor analysis of the Inventory of Perceived Uneasiness in an Unstable Work Setting (IMPIL) are presented. An exploratory factor analysis was conducted (method of principal components, promax rotation), to discuss how the items were grouped. To see if original grouping maintained, an eight factors solution was forced. Items with loads less than .40 and dual weighing were discarded. This left a total of 44 items, and we arrived at a forced eight factors solution that describes the 64.11% of the variance. The items grouped in the eight factors reproduced positive and negative thoughts of the workers and their relationship to the employment context.
