<b>Propiedades psicométricas de la Escala de Actitudes hacia los Feminismos y Movimientos Feministas (FWM) en personal sociosanitario de Colombia</b>

Introduction: Despite available scales, and although attitudes toward feminism and feminist movements represent a relevant construct they are not thoroughly studied in Colombia. Objective: To evaluate the internal consistency and factorial structure of the Feminism and Women’s Movement Scale (FWM) among healthcare workers in Colombia. Method: Psychometric study which included a non-probabilistic sample of 700 healthcare professionals (63.76% women and 36.24% men) aged between 24 and 76 years. Participants completed the FWM. Cronbach’s alpha and McDonald’s omega were calculated to verify internal consistency, suitability of data and the instrument's factorial structure were examined. Results: The FWM showed borderline internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha 0.70 and McDonald's omega 0.71) and low adjustment indices. In response, a 5-item version (FWM-5) was tested, showing high internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha and McDonald’s omega of 0.84) and optimal adjustment indices. Conclusion: The FWM-5 demonstrated adequate psychometric indicators for assessing healthcare workers' sensitivity to feminist ideas. It is advisable to measure this construct in the general Colombian population and explore additional psychometric indicators.
