The article introduces the Polish adaptation of the Work Regulatory Focus Scale. The authors tested its validity in three studies. Confi rmatory factor analyses vindicated the two-factor solution with a lowcorrelation between promotion and prevention scales and their relatively high reliability (Study 1). We observed the expected differences between dissimilar professions in the levels of regulatory foci (Study 2). Moreover, the tool allowed us to predict participants’ results in a different criterion – creativity (Study 3), by demonstrating that promotion-oriented participants are more original, fl uent and divergent in producing creative ideas than prevention-oriented participants. Implications for the results and the WRF Scale are discussed.
