| description | Suicide is a health problem around the world, since suicide rates among Americans aged 45 to 54 is the highest, and most of these individuals were employed at the time of their death. Thus, there is a need to better understand suicidal behavior at work by developing appropriate measurement instruments in order to create prevention and treatment programs. Therefore, the aim of this study was to develop and validate three brief self-report measures of suicidal behavior at work: defeat, entrapment, and work-related suicidal ideation. A total of 1,829 employed individuals from different organizations in Puerto Rico participated in this cross-sectional research design. We conducted item, exploratory, and confirmatory factor analyses. Also, we tested measurement invariance of the new brief scales of suicidal behavior at work. The final version of the suicidal behavior at work brief scales obtained excellent reliability coefficients using Cronbach’s alpha and McDonald’s omega techniques. The results of the EFA and CFA support their internal structure. The new scale appears to be invariant among groups. The scores of the new suicidal behavior at work brief scales appear to be reliable, valid, and invariant, which will help to study and to better understand these behaviors in order to create treatments and prevention programs in our workplaces. |

El suicidio es un problema de salud en todo el mundo, ya que las tasas de suicidio entre los estadounidenses de 45 a 54 años son las más altas, y la mayoría de estas personas estaban empleadas en el momento de su muerte. Por lo tanto, existe la necesidad de comprender mejor el comportamiento suicida en el trabajo desarrollando instrumentos de medición apropiados para así crear programas de prevención y tratamiento. Por lo tanto, el objetivo del presente estudio fue desarrollar y validar tres medidas breves de autoinforme de comportamiento suicida en el trabajo: la percepción de derrotismo, el atrapamiento y la ideación suicida relacionada con el trabajo. Un total de 1,829 personas empleadas de diferentes organizaciones en Puerto Rico participaron en este diseño de investigación transversal. Realizamos análisis de reactivos, factores exploratorios y confirmatorios. Además, probamos la invariancia de medición de las nuevas escalas breves de comportamiento suicida en el trabajo por género, edad, entre otros. La versión final de las escalas breves de conducta suicida en el trabajo obtuvo excelentes coeficientes de confiabilidad mediante las técnicas alfa de Cronbach y omega de McDonald. Los resultados de los análisis de factores exploratorios y confirmatorios respaldan su estructura interna. Las nuevas escalas parecen ser invariantes. Las puntuaciones de las nuevas escalas breves de conducta suicida en el trabajo parecen ser confiables, válidas e invariantes, lo que ayudará a estudiar y comprender mejor estas conductas para crear tratamientos y programas de prevención en los lugares de trabajo.
