ANDRADE, Lucas Barrozo de et al. The development process of a measure of democratic culture in organizations. Rev. Psicol., Organ. Trab. [online]. 2021, vol.21, n.2, pp. 1484-1493. ISSN 1984-6657.

BACKGROUND: The development of a psychometric measure for assessing democratic culture in organizations is described. METHODS: Two studies were conducted. A literature review of studies reporting democratic culture instruments was undertaken. Six databases were used within the timeframe of between 2015 and 2020. Four specialists rated the derived items on clarity, relevance, and translation via the content validity coefficient (CVC). An exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was performed with 225 individuals and the internal consistency was evaluated by Cronbach's alpha. RESULTS: A set of 2,049 articles were obtained in the literature review. The content validity coefficient allowed us to gather 96 items. The EFA achieved a final multidimensional solution formed of 58 items in 6 correlated factors: Citizen Participation, Tolerance and Openness, Organizational Citizenship, Traditionalist Dogmatism, Individualism and Rebellion, and Punitive Authoritarianism. Cronbach's alpha ranged from .59 to .78. CONCLUSION: This article presented several procedures used to develop a new measure of democratic culture in organizations.
