Overview

Validation study demonstrates sound psychometric properties of the General Intellectual Humility Scale in adults, facilitating cross-cultural research on constructive social dialogue.

Key Points

  • Adapt and psychometrically validate the General Intellectual Humility Scale (GIHS) for Spanish-speaking adults in Argentina.
  • Administered an adapted GIHS, the Mini-IPIP, and demographic questions via an online survey to 201 Argentinian adults (mean age 58.9 years, SD = 16.6; 70.6% female) following International Test Commission guidelines.
  • Evaluated the factor structure using confirmatory factor analysis and examined internal reliability and convergent validity.
  • Confirmatory factor analysis verified a unidimensional scale structure with acceptable model fit metrics (CFI = 0.953, TLI = 0.922, RMSEA = 0.087).
  • Scale reliability demonstrated good internal consistency (Cronbach's α = 0.797, McDonald's ω = 0.801).
  • External convergent validity was established via a significant positive correlation with agreeableness (r = 0.341, p < .001).
