Abstract: In the last decades, happiness at work has been studied due to social changes; increased
workload; stress; and, more recently, the COVID-19 pandemic. Happiness at work is considered an
umbrella concept as it covers individual and organizational aspects of working life. The aim of this
study is to analyze the psychometric properties of the Shorted Happiness at Work Scale (SHAW) in a
sample of Portuguese nurses. A cross-sectional study with 113 Portuguese nurses, from one of the
islands of the Azores, was selected through a convenience sample. A sociodemographic/professional
questionnaire and the SHAW scale were applied. Through the CFA, the SHAW trifactorial model
was tested according to its theoretical reference, having obtained a general tolerable adjustment
index. After respecification of the model through the correlation of the errors of two items, a
better adjustment was obtained, but the RMSEA value remains problematic. Additionally, the
values of the coefficient of internal consistency were indicative of good fidelity. The analysis of the
psychometric characteristics of the SHAW scale, in the sample of Portuguese nurses, suggests a
theoretical adaptation to the model of happiness at work.
