Abstract

The current study contributes to the existing literature by examining the psychometric properties of Dutch Work Addiction Scale (DUWAS). Confirmatory factor analysis was carried out on the responses of public and private sector employees working in various sectors of service industries of Jammu region (India) using AMOS 16 Software package against the various dimensions of DUWAS. The results provide support for the first-order a priori 3-factor, 20-item DUWAS scale which collectively comprised second order factor called workaholism.
