Main Article Content
Regulatory modes can be defined as the different ways of acting to achieve a certain goal. There are two functionally independent types of regulatory modes: locomotion and assessment. Locomotion refers to the ability to initiate and sustain movement toward a goal, while assessment focuses on the critical comparison of alternatives to determine the best option. Although many authors have explored this topic, there is a lack of research addressing regulatory modes and the validation of their scales in Latin American countries. The present study aims to adapt the instrument and provide evidence of its construct, criterion validity, and reliability in the Argentine context. A sample of 230 Argentine individuals was used for the pilot study, and 713 for the main study. An Exploratory Factor Analysis was conducted with the pilot sample, while a Confirmatory Factor Analysis was performed with the main study sample. The results led to the elimination of some items, yielding good psychometric properties. In the end, a five-item “locomotion” scale and a five-item “assessment” scale were established, both showing satisfactory reliability and a positive association between them. This work provides an initial approach to this topic in Argentina, facilitating the potential use of these scales in future studies.
