description The current work context is everchanging and full of challenges, in which up to six different generations coexist, where age affects the dimensions of the business space in tasks, in human relationships, and personal coping in response to work and the leadership that is exercised. Little is known about the experiences, values, skills, concerns, and motivations that affect the vital and professional essence, that can generate conflicts in the workplace. The present study validated a scale aimed at examining intergenerational conflict within organizations and is based on previous research by Urick et al. (2017), which established factors associated with conflict between generations. Sample descriptive statistics were calculated and Cronbach’s alpha and Pearson’s correlations between variables were tested to validate the questionnaire. An exploratory factor analysis was performed using SPSS software. A first order confirmatory factor analysis was performed with the AMOS software and the Dillon-Goldstein Rho (or composite reliability) was calculated to verify internal consistency of the indicators for each latent variable. The sample was comprised of workers from the State of Mexico and Mexico City, Hidalgo, Nuevo León, and Guanajuato among others. The results suggest that all acceptance criteria have been met, the Rho de Dillon Goldstein is acceptable, the first factor (Opening of the generation gap) is 0.85 and the second factor (Limitations for intergenerational work) is 0.78 so the model obtained the required validation quality.

Existe un contexto laboral variable lleno de retos, en el cual conviven hasta seis generaciones diferentes, donde la edad afecta las dimensiones del espacio empresarial en las tareas, las relaciones humanas, el afrontamiento personal ante el trabajo y el liderazgo que se ejerce. Se conoce poco sobre las experiencias, valores, habilidades, inquietudes y motivaciones que inciden en la esencia vital y profesional que pueden generar conflictos en el ámbito laboral. El presente estudio valida una escala que permite explorar el conflicto intergeneracional en las organizaciones, toma como base a Urick donde establece los factores asociados al conflicto entre generaciones. Para validar el cuestionario se obtuvieron los estadísticos descriptivos de la muestra, se calculó el alfa de Cronbach y las correlaciones de Pearson entre variables, se realizó un análisis factorial exploratorio con el software SPSS, se efectuó un análisis factorial confirmatorio de primer orden con el software AMOS y se calculó la rho de Dillon-Goldstein (o la confiabilidad compuesta) para verificar la consistencia interna de los indicadores para cada variable latente. En la muestra participaron trabajadores del Estado de México y de la Cd. de México, Hidalgo, Nuevo León, Guanajuato, entre otros. El resultado arroja el cumplimiento de todos los criterios de aceptación, la rho de Dillon- Goldstein, el primer factor (apertura de la brecha generacional) es 0.85 y el segundo factor (limitaciones para el trabajo intergeneracional) es 0.78, por lo que el modelo obtuvo la calidad de validación requerida.
