Summary/Abstract: The Temporal Experience Questionnaire (TEQ) was constructed by Ricks, Epley and Wessman, (1973) in order to asses the way in which people behave in time restricted situations and also measure the attitude people may have towards time. This paper presents the findings of a study undertaken to adapt the TEQ for the Romanian population. A sample of 642 subjects, 321 male and 321 female, were used. Based on exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis a four factor model was obtained. Results show adequate construct, convergent and discriminant validity of the adapted instrument as well as acceptable internal consistency for each scale. Test-retest coefficients (for a three month period) were very high.
