| Summary: | Present data are gathered from a sample of civil population (n = 1003) and military cadets (n =488). The main objective of this study was to obtain the psychometric properties (reliability and validity) of the Organizational Description Questionnaire (Bass & Avolio, 1992). In reference to reliability, results show good levels of internal consistency for both dimensions, although they are a little bit lower for the transactional culture dimension for both populations. In reference to validity, the evidence allows affirming that the test is valid. The factorial analysis showed that the items group in 2 factors that respond to the theoretical proposal made by the authors of the test. Lastly, we have found differences between leaders and followers on the perception of organizatio-nal culture for both populations. === Se presentan datos correspondientes a un estudio realizado con población civil (n = 1003) y militar (n = 488) que tuvo como objetivo principal determinar las características psicométricas (fiabilidad y validez) del Organizational Description Questionnaire (Bass & Avolio, 1992). Con respecto a la fiabilidad, los resultados muestran buenos niveles de consistencia interna para ambas dimensiones aunque son algo bajos para la dimensión cultura transaccional para ambas poblaciones. Con respecto a la validez, se encontraron evidencias que permiten afirmar que la prueba es válida. El análisis factorial mostró que los ítems se agrupan en dos factores los cuales responden a la propuesta teórica hecha por los autores de la prueba. Por último, se encontraron diferencias en la percepción de la cultura organizacional que tienen líderes y seguidores de ambos contextos. |
