Abstract

Contexte : Les entrepreneurs sont souvent confrontés à des niveaux élevés de stress, d'anxiété et d'épuisement en raison de la nature exigeante de leurs activités professionnelles. Par conséquent, la récupération du stress lié au travail est une activité cruciale pour eux. Le Recovery Experience Questionnaire (REQ) est une échelle auto-rapportée de 16 items largement utilisée, couvrant quatre facteurs de récupération : le détachement psychologique du travail, la relaxation, la maîtrise et le contrôle. Cette étude porte sur la validation d'une version française du REQ. Méthodes : Un total de 1 043 entrepreneurs français provenant de divers secteurs a participé à cette étude. La cohérence interne et les corrélations ont été examinées pour évaluer les propriétés psychométriques de la version française du REQ. Une analyse factorielle confirmatoire (AFC) a été utilisée pour valider la structure à quatre facteurs du REQ, avec l'ajout de sept covariances d'erreur pour améliorer l'ajustement du modèle. Résultats : La version française du REQ a montré une bonne cohérence interne (détachement psychologique : α = 0,88, relaxation : α = 0,91, maîtrise : α = 0,90, contrôle : α = 0,91). L'AFC a confirmé la structure à quatre facteurs avec les données suivantes : RMSEA = 0,071 (IC 95 % [0,066, 0,077]), CFI/TLI = 0,955/0,950, SRMR = 0,050 et χ² (108) = 593,861, p < 0,001. Des corrélations significatives ont été trouvées entre les scores du REQ et des indicateurs de santé tels que le stress, la solitude, la santé physique, la santé mentale et la qualité du sommeil. Les résultats confirment que le REQ est une mesure valide et fiable pour évaluer les expériences de récupération chez les entrepreneurs français. Conclusion : Nous concluons que le REQ est une mesure valide et un outil utile pour la recherche sur la santé générale des entrepreneurs. De plus, la version française validée du REQ peut être appliquée à d'autres populations professionnelles, ce qui en fait un instrument polyvalent pour évaluer la santé et la récupération dans divers contextes professionnels. Pour soutenir cette affirmation, nous avons mené la même analyse de validation sur un échantillon de 1 231 employés agricoles français, démontrant à nouveau que le REQ est une mesure valide et fiable pour évaluer les expériences de récupération.
