Resumo: O cinismo organizacional, entendido como uma atitude de descrença em relação à organização e à sua gestão, resultante da falta de congruência das práticas de gestão e traduzida por sentimentos e comportamentos negativos, é um constructo que tem vindo a ser recentemente sujeito a diversos estudos. Para a medição deste constructo têm sido utilizados dois questionários, sendo que nenhum dos quais está estudado para o contexto português. Assim, o presente estudo consistiu na adaptação da escala de medida
do cinismo organizacional proposta por Brandes, Dharwadkar e Dean (1999) para o contexto português. Os resultados obtidos seguem na linha da proposta dos autores, apontando para o caráter tridimensional do constructo, embora não permitam rejeitar a possibilidade de este ser unidimensional. Os resultados sugerem um instrumento com boas propriedades de medida. Foram discutidas as implicações destes resultados.
Abstract: Organizational cynicism, understood as an attitude of disbelief towards the organization and its management, resulting from the lack of coherence of management practices and translated by negative feelings and behaviors, is a construct that has recently been subjected to several studies. For the measurement of this construct two questionnaires have been used, although none of them has been studied for the Portuguese context. Thus, the present study consisted in the adaptation of the measurement scale of organizational cynicism proposed by Brandes, Dharwadkar and Dean (1999) for the portuguese context. The results follow the proposal of the authors, pointing to the three-dimensional character of the construct, although not rejecting the possibility of its uni-dimensionality. The results suggest an instrument with good properties of measurement. The implications of these results are discussed.
