Resumo: Over time the relations between negative affective dimensions, anxiety and depression have been considered important from both theoretical and mental health points of view and, therefore, constitute classic dimensions in psychology and psychopathology. The operationalization of the existing models led to the construction of measures such as the scale focus of this study, the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS) which evaluates symptoms of depression, anxiety and stress in 21 items, indicating on a four-point frequency scale how much one experienced each symptom the previous week. This is a descriptive, exploratory and correlational study with a quantitative approach involving workers in the cities of and João Pessoa-PB and Natal-RN. Considering a collection of intentional data, using the snowball method, 219 workers participated in the sample, with the majority: from the private sector (47%), from the city of João Pessoa-PB (55%), married (44%), 66% women, with Specialization (36%) and over the age of 21 years old. These workers answered the sociodemographic data and the DASS-21 scale. The results revealed that the adjusted oblique trifactor model, when compared to the other established models, presented better psychometric indicators. As well as diagnostic sensitivity for workers. The scale in question is adequate, reliable and invariable, ensuring the evaluative capacity of the construct.

El funcionamiento de los modelos existentes condujo a la construcción de medidas como la escala en estudio, la Escala de Estrés de Ansiedad por Depresión (DASS) que evalúa los síntomas de depresión, ansiedad y estrés en 21 ítems, indicando en una escala de frecuencia de cuatro puntos en cuánto experimentó cada síntoma en la última semana. El estudio es de carácter descriptivo, exploratorio y correlacional con un enfoque cuantitativo que involucra a trabajadores en las ciudades de João Pessoa-PB y Natal-RN. Considerando una recogida de datos intencionales, utilizando el método de bola de nieve, 219 trabajadores participaron de la muestra, con la mayoría: del sector privado (47%), de la ciudad de João Pessoa-PB (55%), casados (44%), 66% mujeres, con especialización (36%) y mayores de 21 años. Estos respondieron los datos sociodemográficos y la escala DASS-21. Los resultados revelaron que el modelo trifactorial oblicuo ajustado, en comparación con los otros modelos establecidos, presentaba mejores indicadores psicométricos. Así como la sensibilidad diagnóstica para trabajadores. La escala en cuestión es adecuada, confiable e invariable, asegurando la capacidad evaluativa del constructo.Ao longo dos tempos as relações entre as dimensões afetivas negativas, ansiedade e depressão, têm sido consideradas importantes tanto do ponto de vista teórico como no da saúde mental e, por isso, constituem dimensões clássicas na psicologia e na psicopatologia.

Estes responderam os dados sociodemográficos e a escala DASS-21. Os resultados revelaram, que o modelo trifatorial oblíquo ajustado, quando comparados aos demais modelos estabelecidos, apresentou melhores indicadores psicométricos.
