Resumo(s)
This study aims to validate the Kaleidoscope Career Scale (KCS), an assessment instrument designed to measure the three parameters of the Kaleidoscope Career Model, for the Portuguese population. A total of 331 Portuguese workers participated, 163 men (57.4%), with an average age of 27.7 years (SD = 9.22; Median = 25; Min-Max = 18-70). Confirmatory factor analyses supported KCS three-factor structure, χ2 (83) = 184, p < .001; χ2 /df = 2.217; CFI = .933; TLI = .915; SRMS = .06089; RMSEA (90% CI = .0609 [.0491, .0727]), and Cronbach’s alpha estimates supported its good reliability. Convergent and discriminant validity also proved to be adequate. Multigroup analyses indicated adequate configural, metric and scalar invariance across genders. These findings support KCS usage as a valid and reliable measure to assess strategic career behaviors among Portuguese workers both in research and practice.
