Compulsory teleworking has affected workers in several countries, increasing concerns about managerial support. This study aimed to build and present validity evidence of the Short Scale for Managerial Support to Teleworkers. We carried out four successive steps, namely: adapting items from other managerial support scales or related constructs to the teleworking context; exploratory factor analysis and network analysis (N = 3,769); confirmatory factor analysis (N = 3,839); invariance analysis considering gender and education (N = 7,608). As a result, the scale has a unifactorial structure with five items and quite favorable psychometric indicators regarding validity, reliability, and invariance. We recommend using the scale applied to different samples of teleworkers and research with other organizational or individual variables © 2023, Psico-USF.All Rights Reserved.
