Resumo: Validating the Cultural Intelligence Scale (CQS) for the Portuguese population was the main objective of this study. Cultural Intelligence is recognized as a crucial competence in multicultural situations. The multidimensional cultural intelligence scale is composed of 20 items arranged into four dimensions and is used to evaluate the individual characteristics that predispose to better performance in unfamiliar cultural environments. The results from the analysis of main components in a total sample of 275 participants, aged between 18 and 72 (M = 29.3; SD = 12.9), replicated the original ones, therefore showing good validity values and internal consistency (Cronbach alpha .93), revealing the multidimension of the evaluated construct. Once the exploratory analysis replicated the model tested by the confirmatory analysis, the application of this instrument in multicultural organizational contexts can be considered an essential tool, not only to identify crucial capacities for the functioning of the human resources, teams or organizations in environments characterized by cultural diversity, but also to ensure the success in the integration processes of immigrants and expatriates.

A inteligência cultural é uma competência crucial na adaptação a ambientes multiculturais. A escala multidimensional de inteligência cultural é composta por 20 itens agrupados em quatro dimensões e permite avaliar as características individuais que predispõem um melhor desempenho em ambientes culturais não familiares. Com uma amostra total de 275 participantes, com idades compreendidas entre os 18 e os 72 anos (M = 29,3; DP = 12,9), os resultados obtidos através da realização da análise de componentes principais replicaram os resultados originais, apresentando bons valores de validade e consistência interna (alfa de Cronbach de 0,93), revelando a multidimensionalidade do construto avaliado. A análise exploratória replicou o modelo testado pela análise confi rmatória. Assim, a aplicação deste instrumento em contexto organizacional multicultural poderá ser uma ferramenta fundamental para identifi car competências cruciais ao desempenho dos recursos humanos, equipas ou organizações, em ambientes caracterizados pela diversidade cultural, assim como, garantir o sucesso dos processos de integração de expatriados e de imigrantes.
