Perdão Conjugal, Escala, Validade, Adaptação.Resumo
O presente estudo objetivou adaptar a Escala de Perdão Conjugal (MOFS) para o contexto brasileiro, reunindo evidências de validade de construto (fatorial e consistência interna). Participaram 205 pessoas casadas da Paraíba (M = 35,8; SD = 10,49; 59% do sexo feminino). Estes responderam a MOFS e perguntas demográficas. Uma Análise Fatorial Confirmatória, com estimador MLR, permitiu comprovar a estrutura originalmente proposta, com os seguintes indicadores de ajuste: CFI = 0,94; TLI = 0,92; RMSEA (IC 95%) = 0,07 (0,04-0,09), apresentando aceitáveis evidências de fidedignidade avaliadas pelo alfa de Cronbach, homogeneidade e confiabilidade composta. Conclui-se que a MOFS apresenta evidências de aceitáveis parâmetros psicométricos, podendo ser usada em estudos futuros sobre o perdão nas relações conjugais.
