AB Passion is defined as a strong inclination toward an activity that people like, that theyfind important and in which they invest time and energy, such as working or playing football.Since a specific measure to assess levels of passion in the workplace is lacking in Spain, the aimof this study was to adapt and validate the Passion scale (Vallerand et al., 2003) into Spanish.After translating it from English to Spanish using the forward-backward translation method, itwas given to a sample of 548 Spanish workers. Exploratory factor analyses were conducted totest the replicability of the scale. The results confirmed the expected two-factor structurethrough internal replication using exploratory factor analysis. Criterion-related validity wastested by correlating both obsessive and harmonious passion to work engagement. With regardto internal consistency, adequate Alpha coefficients were obtained for both factors.
