Abstract

The aim of this paper is to analyse the psychometric properties of the last version of the organizational climate questionnaire developed by the FOCUS international research team. The study sample was made up by 142 employees of different work organizations. the questionnaire's factor structure components represented the dimensions of control, flexibility, internal orientation and external orientation. The internal consistency of the obtained components is adequate, except the case of internal orientation, and their validity is promising. The results obtained are compared with those obtained in a previous study carried out in a different sample, and suggestions for future research are provided.
