Abstract

The aim of this study is to assess the psychometric properties of the ‘Corruption Normalisation Scale’ in students from a private university in Metropolitan Lima across 10 schools. The study has an instrumental design and involves the participation of 1,572 university students between the ages of 18 and 29, who belong to 10 different schools within the university. Using the McDonald Omega coefficient, item, exploratory and confirmatory factor, and internal consistency reliability analyses were conducted. The quality of the scale has been tested, obtaining high levels of validity and reliability. Although initially designed as a one-dimensional scale, the results suggest a three-factor structure comprising fraud, deception and transgression.
