This quantitative study adapted and collected internal and external evidence of validity of the Retirement Planning Self-efficacy Scale (RPSS) in the Brazilian context. A sample of 292 older Brazilian workers participated in this study, 60.3% women and 39.7% men, with a mean age of 54.6 years (SD = 7.8). The results confirmed the expected two-dimensional internal structure of the RPSS in the reduced version of 9 items, subscales of financial selfefficacy (3 items) and time self-efficacy (6 items). The scale showed configural, metric, and scalar invariance for different demographic groups. The results also pointed to a robust set of evidence external validity, in which there was a significant association between self-efficacy types and antecedents and consequents constructs measured in retirement.
