A non-experimental, cross-sectional, instrumental study was conducted to adapt and validate the Pro-QOL R-IV scale in Argentinian psychologists. Data were obtained through a voluntary and non-probabilistic sampling. A sample of 560 psychologists of mean age 40.7 (SD = 28.37; Min = 23, Max = 67; 67% women, 33% men) was used. In all cases, adequate percentage values and Aiken’s V coefficients were obtained. The exploratory factor analysis grouped 30 items into three latent variables, showing adequate values in the validity tests. Confirmatory factor analysis supported a good fit for the three-factor model. It is concluded that the Pro-QOL-Psi Inventory is a valid and reliable instrument to assess quality of life in Argentine psychologists. La calidad de vida profesional, especialmente en psicólogos clínicos, es un tema relevante debido a la alta incidencia de agotamiento y desgaste emocional. Se realizó un estudio no experimental transversal de tipo instrumental para adaptar y validar la escala Pro-QOL R-IV en psicólogos argentinos. Los datos se obtuvieron a través de un muestreo voluntario y no probabilístico. Se utilizó una muestra de 560 psicólogos de edad promedio 40.7 (DE = 28.37; Mín = 23, Máx = 67; 67% mujeres, 33% hombres), en la cual, se obtuvieron adecuados valores de porcentajes y coeficientes V de Aiken en todos los casos. El análisis factorial exploratorio agrupó 30 ítems en tres variables latentes, mostrando valores apropiados en las pruebas de validez. El análisis factorial confirmatorio respaldó un buen ajuste para el modelo de tres factores. Se concluye que el Inventario Pro-QOL-Psi es un instrumento válido y confiable para evaluar la calidad de vida en psicólogos argentinos.
