Resumo: Even though Sternberg's Triangular Love Scale (STLS) has been increasingly used in Brazilian research, all the relevant studies have been conducted at a state level. The objective of this study was to investigate the psychometric attributes of the scale at a national level. The STLS was applied to a sample of 1,549 participants from 13 Brazilian states. The results suggest that STLS is an excellent test, with the three-factor structure predicted by the theory and a high level of reliability (α = 0.98). The Item Response Theory showed that STLS has highly discriminative items, assessing a large share of the population, although low difficulty was applied. We suggest keeping complex items in the scale in order to maintain a reliable and valid measure of love.

Sin embargo, todos sus estudios fueron a nivel estadual. El objetivo de este estudio fue investigar las propiedades psicométricas de la escala a nivel nacional. La ETAS fue aplicada a una muestra de 1549 participantes de 13 Unidades de la Federación brasileña. Los resultados sugieren que ETAS es una excelente prueba, con la estructura de tres factores prevista por la teoría y un alto nivel de precisión (α = 0,98). La Teoría de Respuesta al Ítem mostró que la ETAS tiene ítems muy discriminatorios, evaluando un buen nivel de la población, pero con dificultad baja. Sugiere-se el mantenimiento de los ítems complejos de la escala, con el propósito de tener una medida fiable y válida de amor.A Escala Triangular do Amor de Sternberg (ETAS) vem sendo a cada dia mais utilizada em pesquisas no Brasil.
