This study aimed to adapt and validate the Spanish version of the Survey of Organizational Attributes in Dental Care (SSOADC) in order to apply it to the national dental care sector. The participants were 366 dentists between 24 and 69 years old who filled out the questionnaires anonymously. Confirmatory factor analyses showed an adequate fit of a 4-factor correlated model, with adequate reliability values, thus replicating the factorial structure of the original instrument. Evidence was also provided on the invariance of this factor structure across genders and years of professional experience. The multiple linear regression showed that the dimensions of work environment give medium-small support to the predictive validity of the scale. The SSOADC demonstrates adequate internal consistency and good factorial validity, representing a valid and reliable adaptation of the instrument. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
