The strong implications of career calling for individuals' attitudes, behaviors and well-being have promoted a sustained growth of studies on this topic in the last few decades. However, recent systematic reviews reveal that this phenomenon remains largely understudied in Latin America mostly due to measurement reasons. This study contributes to this line of research by developing a Spanish Version of the Calling and Vocation Questionnaire - Short Form (the Sp-CVQ-6) and a Spanish version of the Living a Calling Scale (the Sp-LCS). More specifically, by using a large, multi-occupational sample of Argentinian workers from a broad variety of industries, levels and positions (N = 710), this paper examines the psychometric properties of both instruments in terms of their internal consistency, factor structure, convergent validity and empirical validity. The results reveal that the Sp-CVQ-6 and the Sp-LCS are valid instruments to assess career calling in Argentina and, hopefully, in other Spanish-speaking countries. Moreover, since both instruments are brief, theoretically grounded and psychometrically sound measures, we are confident that these scales will be helpful, on the one hand, to promote research on this topic in Latin America, and, on the other hand, to facilitate accumulation and comparison of evidence across countries and cultures.
