Resumo: This article reports the construetion of a scale designed to measure attitude toward stable affective relationships(SAR). The scale construetion was part of a broader study where, within the generic subject of consequences of the liberationof mores on heterosexual love relationships, the influence of sex and gender on the attitude toward this type of intimaterelationship was explored. The following steps were utilized: (a) interview with adolescents and young adults in order to collectmaterial for the construetion of the items; (b) application of the items construeted to 100 college students who were asked toindicate the importance of each item to a SAR; (c) maintenance of the items in which at least 80% of the sample agreed thatthey were important; (d) pre-test with 111 college students; (e) maintenance of the items of greater discriminant power andfinal testing with a 257 college students sample. The scale was translated into English and tested with a sample of 167 collegestudents from the University of Califórnia, Los Angeles. With both, the Brazilian and the American samples, the instrumentshowed high reliability (oc = 0,91; a = 0,89). The three validation criteria used (factorial validity, construct validity, andconcurrent validity with the Love Attitudes Scale by Hendrick & Hendrick, 1986) confirmed the validity of the SAR Scale. Thearticle concludes with indications about the utility of the scale for research on close relationships and even for clinicai practice.

A confecção da escala seguiu os seguintes passos: (a) entrevistas com adolescentes e adultos jovens destinadas a coletar subsídios para criação dos itens; (b) aplicação dos itens construídos a 100 estudantes universitáriossolicitando-lhes que indicassem a importância de cada item para uma RAE; (c) manutenção dos itens sobre os quais se verificou80% de concordância acerca de sua importância; (d) pré-teste com 111 estudantes universitários; (e) retenção dos itens de maior poder discriminantè ejestagem com uma amostra de 257 estudantes universitários. Posteriormente, a escala foi traduzida para o inglês e testada com uma amostra de 167 alunos da Universidade da Califórnia, Los Angeles. Tanto com a amostra brasileira quanto com a amostra americana, o instrumento mostrou alta fidedignidade (a = 0,91; a = 0,89). Os três critérios de validação utilizados (validade fatorial, validade de construto e validade simultânea com a Love Altitudes Scale, de Hendrick e Hendrick, 1986) confirmaram a validade da escala RAE. O artigo conclui com indicações sobre a utilidade da escala em pesquisa sobre relacionamentos íntimos e no próprio campo da prática clínicaInstituto de Psicologia - Universidade de Brasília2012-09-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/revistaptp/article/view/17214Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 11 No. 1 (1995): Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisaPsicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 11 Núm. 1 (1995): Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisaPsicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 11 No. 1 (1995): Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisaPsicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; v. 11 n. 1 (1995): Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisa1806-34460102-3772reponame:Psicologia (Universidade de Brasília.
