Social Climate Scale

The subject of this article is the issue of the social climate of the institution as one of the determinants of security in the perspective of Police research. In the literature on the issue of the social climate of the institution the reality is that it is difficult to find references to this concept in respect of the police. It seems that this is conditioned by the specific nature of the current form of the functioning of the Police and its organisational structure. The subject of the study is a proposal for research into the social climate in the Police. Based on the literature on the subject the phenomenon of social climate is described along with its influence on the sense of comfort and satisfaction of the employees. A good social climate contributes to the co-operation of employees, as well as stimulates a sense of loyalty to the group and responsibility for its success. Further on in the article remarks on the study of a social climate scale by R H Moss are presented, along with an indication of the division of the statements contained in this scale, taking into account the content of the messages. This approach to the scale of social climate is justified in the third part of the article, which presents the concept of research on the social climate of the institution as one of the determinants of security in the perspective of the police research which will be carried out by the Authors of the article.

Objetivos: desenvolver um estudo empírico numa organização de economia mista sediada no norte de Portugal, tendo por base a “Social Climate Scale Work”. Pertinência: a natureza das tarefas (recolha do lixo), o tipo de horário (diurno e noturno) e o modelo empresarial (economia mista), constituíram elementos determinantes para esta investigação. Considerando também o aumento da concentração urbana e as exigências legislativas de tratamento de resíduos sólidos, esta investigação é ainda pertinente por analisar a representação que os trabalhadores possuem da sua organização e, neste sentido, poderá contribuir para novas formas de gestão de recursos humanos e de organização do trabalho. Identificação da problemática: avaliar a perceção dos colaboradores do clima organizacional relativamente às variáveis e dimensões prescritas pelo instrumento utilizado. Metodologia: para a avaliação do clima organizacional recorreu-se à escala de Clima Social no Trabalho (Moos & Insel, 1974), validada para a população portuguesa (Lobo & Fernández, 2001). Trata-se de um instrumento de respostas dicotómicas composto por 90 itens, três dimensões (Relações, Estabilidade/Mudança e Autorrealização), configuradas por dez subescalas (Implicação, Coesão, Apoio, Autonomia, Organização, Pressão, Clareza, Controlo, Inovação e Comodidade). Para os objetivos do presente estudo foi usada a forma R (Real), embora a escala apresente a forma I (Ideal) e E (Expectativas). Os dados foram submetidos a análise quantitativa através do programa estatístico Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS), versão 20.0 para o Windows. As variáveis sociodemográficas consideradas foram: género, idade, escolaridade, profissão, estado civil, vínculo, anos de serviço, horário e departamento. Resultados: os resultados obtidos indicam que, das variáveis sociodemográficas consideradas, a natureza do horário de trabalho é aquela que apresenta maior poder preditivo da perceção do clima organizacional, da implicação, da inovação e da comodidade. Por sua vez, a escolaridade é preditora dos níveis de controlo exercidos sobre o trabalhador, sendo que, as duas variáveis se relacionam negativamente. O trabalho noturno prediz o tipo de relações interpessoais, assim como a perceção de Estabilidade/Mudança.

Social Climate Scale

School social climate from a multidimensional perspective is a focus of great interest in international research and educational and well-being public policies due to the high prevalence of interpersonal violence in adolescents, currently considered a global public health problem. The object of the present study was to assess the psychometric measurement capacity of a set of items to evaluate school social climate in the Student Context Questionnaire of the Chilean Education Quality Measurement System. The sample analyzed consisted of second-year high school students who replied to a Student Context Questionnaire in 2015 (n~158,572). Exploratory and confirmatory factorial analyses were carried out in a measurement model to identify the presence of constructs and items of high homogeneity. The results showed an acceptable to a good fit in the final model, which consisted of 15 latent constructs, and also showed invariance for school administrative dependencies and invariance for sex. All the above implies a contribution to the public organisms that create standardized tests along with the investigation in compulsory secondary education measurement to prevent future violent behaviors, contribute to reducing interpersonal violence, and improve the well-being of the educational community.

The University

The conditions are investigated in which Spanish university teachers carry out their teaching and research functions. 655 teachers from the University of Oviedo took part in this study by completing the Academic Setting Evaluation Questionnaire (ASEQ). Of the three dimensions assessed in the ASEQ, Satisfaction received the lowest ratings, Social Climate was rated higher, and Relations with students was rated the highest. These results are similar to those found in two studies carried out in the academic years 1986/87 and 1989/90. Their relevance for higher education is twofold because these data can be used as a complement of those obtained by means of students' opinions, and the crossing of both types of data can facilitate decision making in order to improve the quality of the work (teaching and research) of the university institutions.
