Resumo: The aim of this study was to adapt the Public Speaking Anxiety Scale (PSAS) to the Brazilian context. Participants were 667 university students aged from 18 to 60 (M = 24.17; SD = 5.43), mostly women (70.5%). Regarding the factorial validity, through Confirmatory Factor Analyzes, three PSAS models were tested (one factor, two factors and three factors). Only two of them showed acceptable fit quality indices. One ANOVA pointed to the three factors model as the most appropriate. Regarding convergent validity, Pearson correlations showed a moderate association with others anxiety measures. The results justify the use of PSAS in the Brazilian context for research purposes.

Para isso contou-se com uma amostra por conveniência de 667 estudantes universitários com idades entre 18 e 60 anos (M = 24,17; DP = 5,43), a maioria mulheres (70,5%). Em relação a evidência de validade, por meio de Análises Fatoriais Confirmatórias foram testados três modelos da PSAS (um fator, dois fatores e três fatores). Desses, apenas dois apresentaram índices de qualidade de ajuste aceitáveis. Uma ANOVA apontou o modelo de três fatores como o mais adequado. Quanto a validade convergente, correlações de Pearson mostraram associação moderada com outras medidas de ansiedade. Os resultados obtidos justificam o uso da PSAS no contexto brasileiro para fins de pesquisa.Unisinos2020-07-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.unisinos.br/index.php/contextosclinicos/article/view/ctc.2020.131.0210.4013/ctc.2020.131.02Contextos Clínicos; v. 13 n. 1 (2020): Jan-Abr; 19-351983-3482reponame:Contextos Clínicosinstname:Universidade do Vale do Rio dos Sinos (UNISINOS)instacron:Unisinosporhttps://revistas.unisinos.br/index.php/contextosclinicos/article/view/ctc.2020.131.02/60747831Oliveira, Brenda Lorrenne Dunga deSales, Hemerson Fillipy SilvaLima, Kaline da SilvaSantos, Natanael Antonio dosGaldino, Melyssa Kellyane Cavalcantiinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2020-08-07T14:59:30Zoai:ojs2.revistas.unisinos.br:article/19032Revistahttps://revistas.unisinos.br/index.php/contextosclinicosPUBhttps://revistas.unisinos.br/index.php/contextosclinicos/oaidfalcke@unisinos.br||periodicos@unisinos.br1983-34821983-3482opendoar:2020-08-07T14:59:30Contextos Clínicos - Universidade do Vale do Rio dos Sinos (UNISINOS)false
