there raises a model of structural equations who relates the different typologies of organizational culture and the perception of
discrimination of kind and the third phase that relates the different typologies of organizational culture and the scale of perception
(EIOG).
For the elaboration of scale EIOG two representative samples have been used, one of 274 people belonging to the university
sector and other of 354 people belonging to organizations of the industrial sector and with more than 50 workers / hard-working
that have allowed the validation of the scale by means of an analysis of validity of content, convergent and discriminante, as well
as an analysis of reliability of the scale. The phase 2 and 3 develop across models of structural equations, statistical powerful tool
for the study of causal relations.The investigation concludes that relation exists between both variables object of this thesis, relation
