Resumo: The aim of this study is to test the unidimensional 9-items factorial model, about psychological stress, with a non-clinical sample of Canadian students, evaluated by the metric principals of factorial analysis and internal consistency. A sample of 546 university students (Women = 79.6%, Men = 20.4%, Mean age = 23.2, Standard Deviation = 7.3) were used. The results of the exploratory factorial analysis (explaining about 55.3% of the total variance of the construct) and confi rmatory (GFI = 0.994, AGFI = 0.991, CMIN / DF = 3.77, RMSEA = 0.071, CFI = 0.985) satisfactorily confi rmed its unidimensionality. The results of the internal consistency study, obtained by Cronbach’s Alpha, McDonald’s Omega, Greatest Lower Bound coeffi cient, and also the EAP scores, ensure the accuracy of the tested model. New studies should explore and test other important metric qualities of this instrument (content validity and test-retest reliability, among others).

New studies should explore and test other important metric qualities of this instrument (content validity and test-retest reliability, among others).O objetivo deste estudo é testar o modelo fatorial, unidimensional, a 9-itens sobre Estresse psicológico de uma amostra não clínica de estudantes canadenses, avaliado pela Escala de Estresse Psicológico (EEP-9), de Louise Lemyre (1988), através dos princípios métricos das análises fatoriais e consistência interna. Foi utilizada uma amostra de 546 universitários (Mulheres = 79,6%, Homens = 20,4%; Idade média = 23,2; Desvio-Padrão = 7,3). Os resultados das análises fatoriais exploratória (explicando cerca de 55,3% da variância total do construto) e confi rmatória (GFI = 0,994; AGFI = 0,991; CMIN/DF = 3.77; RMSEA = 0,071; CFI = 0,985) permitem concluir que o modelo testado confi rmou satisfatoriamente sua unidimensionalidade. Os resultados do estudo da consistência interna, obtidos pelos cálculos Alpha de Cronbach, Ômega de McDonald, o maior coefi - ciente de limite inferior, e, também, o escore EAP, asseguram a precisão do modelo testado. Novos estudos devem explorar/testar outras importantes qualidades métricas deste instrumento (validade de conteúdo e fi dedignidade teste-reteste, entre outras).Universidade LaSalle - Unilasalle CanoasGélinas, SébastienBélanger, KathyGonçalves, Gabriel Henrique TreterBarbosa, Marcus Levi LopesBalbinotti, Marcos Alencar Abaide2017-10-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimento/article/view/420110.18316/sdh.v5i3.4201Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humano; v. 5, n. 3 (2017); p. 09-17Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humano; v. 5, n. 3 (2017); p. 09-172317-8582reponame:Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humanoinstname:Universidade La Salle (UNILASALLE)instacron:UNILASALLEenghttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimento/article/view/4201/pdfDireitos autorais 2017 Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humanoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-04-06T14:46:57Zoai:ojs.revistas.unilasalle.edu.br:article/4201Revistahttp://www.revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimentohttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimento/oaisdh@unilasalle.edu.br2317-85822317-8582opendoar:2022-04-06T14:46:57Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humano - Universidade La Salle (UNILASALLE)false
