Popis: Objective: To contribute to the statistical validity and submit a confirmatory study of workplace violence, which, due to its high frequency and serious effects, is considered a public health problem in Mexico and throughout the world.Methodology: This study includes 250 supervisors from the automotive industry. For data collection, the Reference Guide III proposed in NOM-035-STPS-2018 was used. A descriptive analysis of the psychosocial risk was developed, and a reliability analysis was conducted. Additionally, as factor analysis was feasible, the exploratory factor analysis (EFA), average variance extraction (AVE), and discriminant analysis were performed. Finally, the Structural Equation Modeling of the analyzed domain was performed to determine the validity of the construct.Results: Most of the participants were men (61.44%). Their ages ranged from 30 to 55 years. In addition, 59% of the supervisors in the sample are at high psychosocial risk. The correlation test values were greater than 0,50, while for reliability, both Cronbach’s alpha and McDonald’s Omega coeffic Evaluación de Factores Psicosociales para la Norma Mexicana 035: Una Validación del Dominio de la Violencia Laboral en la Industria Automotriz ient were greater than 0,90. In addition, the feasibility of factor analysis was ensured, and a single factor was extracted from the EFA, representing 86.073% of the explained variance. Likewise, AVE = 0,8895 was obtained. On the other hand, in the discriminant analysis, the variable related to the participants’ companies did not have enough power to differentiate which worker belonged to each. Finally, Structural Equation Modeling confirmed a good fit of the model.Conclusion: The instrument is valid for measuring workplace violence as a psychosocial risk since its statistical psychometrics were acceptable, and it can be used to identify and measure the level of psychosocial risk derived from workplace violence
