The exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis corroborated the construct validity. The reliability of the instrument was evaluated with the results of the application to the study sample and the coefficient of internal consistency alpha of Cronbach, obtaining a very high reliability (0,888); the scale was determined with four levels.
