Numerous authors have developed an interest in understanding the abilities associated with time management. As a consequence, multiple theoretical definitions have been proposed to explain time management. Likewise, several questionnaires have been developed in order to measure this concept. The aim of this study was to validate a French version of one of these tools, namely the Time Personality Indicator (TPI). The French version of the TPI and other personality questionnaires were completed by 1,267 students and employees at the Université Laval in Quebec, Canada. The statistical approach used included exploratory and confirmatory analyses. Results revealed that an eight-factor model provided a better adjustment to the data. The discussion provides arguments supporting the validity of the French version of the TPI and underlines the importance of such a tool for research on time management.
