Resumo: The Brazilian version of the Levenson's trifactorial scale oflocus of control was administered to 1199 male and female subjects withan age average of 27.07 years (SD = 9.80). Data were factor analysed,using the principal factor solution, with an eingenvalue = 1.5. Both orthogonal(Varimax) and oblique (Oblimin) rotations were used. Results revealedisomorphic empirical factors with theoretically postulated dimensions.Thus, the factorial validity of the Brazilian version was established. Theorthogonal solution yielded more consistent factors. The Cronbach alphacoeficients were also calculated for each sub-scale as well as for the TotalInternality. Results are discussed on the basis of the psychometric theoryand with references to the original and Venezuelian version's results.

Os dados foram analisados fatorialmente através do método dos componentes principais e com eigenvalue = 1,5. Foram realizadas rotações oblíqua (Oblimin) e ortogonal (Varimax). Os resultados revelaram fatores empíricos isomorfos comos teoricamente postulados. Desta forma concluiu-se à validade fatorial da versão brasileira da escala. A rotação ortogonal apresentou fatores mais consistentes. Foram também calculados os coeficientes alpha de Cronbach para cada uma das subescalas e para a Internalidade Total. Os resultados são discutidos a partir da teoria psicométrica e de uma comparação com os resultados da versão original e da versão venezuelana.Instituto de Psicologia - Universidade de Brasília2012-07-26info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/revistaptp/article/view/17063Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 5 No. 1: Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisa; 111-122Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 5 Núm. 1: Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisa; 111-122Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 5 No. 1: Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisa; 111-122Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; v. 5 n. 1: Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisa; 111-1221806-34460102-3772reponame:Psicologia (Universidade de Brasília.
