OTSUKA NUNES, Lucas Yukio et al. Psychometric analysis of PANAS in Brazil. Cienc. Psicol. [online]. 2019, vol.13, n.1, pp.45-55. ISSN 1688-4094. https://doi.org/10.22235/cp.v13i1.1808.
Abstract: The Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) is presently one of the most used instruments in the investigation of affective states, both in adults and children. The present study was carried out with the objective of evaluating, from the psychometric point of view, a Brazilian version of this scale in a national sample. Besides the psychometric properties, the convergent validity of the instrument was also evaluated. Altogether, 2648 university students enrolled in the Psychology and Engineering courses of a private university participated in this research, in 15 Brazilian cities, responding to the electronic questionnaire made available on the Internet. Participants also answered the Visual Analogue Scale of Psychological Well-being (FACES), the Subjective Happiness Scale (SHS) and the Mental Health Index Scale (MHI-5). The analysis of the results indicates that PANAS presents satisfactory psychometric properties that authorize its use in Brazil.
