NORIEGA BRAVO, Vivian de las Mercedes  e  PRIA BARROS, María del Carmen. Instrument for evaluation of the organizational environment in the vector control groups. Rev Cubana Salud Pública [online]. 2011, vol.37, n.2, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-3127.

The organizational environment is considered as a factor showing the facilities or the obstacles that a worker may find in performing his/her work. Objective To present the process of construction and validation of an instrument to evaluate the organizational environment in the Vector Control Groups. Methods Twenty criteria were identified in the dimensions: organizational structure, leadership, decision-making, motivation and individual behaviours; 60 items were also drafted and presented as statements in a true or false questionnaire which was validated by experts on the basis of Moriyama´s methodology. The sample for reliability evaluation was made up of 89 workers from 5 vector control groups in Havana province. The Spearmen´s correlation coefficient was estimated, the Mc Nemar´s test was used to verify stability and the Cronbach´s alpha coefficient for internal consistence. As to the validity of the instrument construction, the convergent and divergent types of validity as well as the item/dimension association were analyzed by means of the contingency coefficient. Results After two runs, the experts valued all the items as satisfactory. The internal consistency proved to be high in general whereas dimensions and stability were moderate. The item/dimension association showed weak to moderate relationships; there was agreement between the items classification according to the instrument design and the resulting classification after evaluating the item/dimension associations. Conclusions One valid and reliable instrument is available for the evaluation of the organizational environment in the vector control groups.
