Resumo: ObjectiveThe teacher’s motivation is associated with his/her achievements, health and well-being, which reflect on the quality of teaching. Based on the Theory of Self-Determination, validity evidence of an instrument to assess teacher’s motivation for teaching was developed, containing 26 items to be answered on a Likert-type scale.MethodThe questionnaire Teacher’s motivation for teaching was applied online in a sample of 509 higher education teachers, 50.39% female and 49.41% male, with ages ranging from 25 to 73 years. Data were analyzed using Exploratory Factor Analysis, using the Parallel Analysis method.ResultsExploratory Factor Analysis revealed a two factors structure with a few structural problems that required the deletion of some items. The 17-item version of the teacher’s motivation for teaching was simple and the estimated adjustment indexes were very good.ConclusionThe high factor loadings obtained among the items and the two factors to which they clustered allow to consider them representatives of the constructs Autonomous and Controlled Motivation.

Com base na Teoria da Autodeterminação, buscou-se evidência de validade de um instrumento para avaliar a motivação do professor para ensinar, contendo 26 itens a serem respondidos em uma escala do tipo Likert.MétodoO questionário Motivação do professor para o ensino foi aplicado online em uma amostra de 509 professores do ensino superior, 50,39% do sexo feminino e 49,41% do sexo masculino, com idades compreendidas entre os 25 e os 73 anos. Os dados foram analisados por meio da Análise Fatorial Exploratória, utilizando-se o método de Análise Paralela. ResultadosA Análise Fatorial Exploratória revelou uma estrutura de dois fatores com alguns problemas estruturais que exigiram a exclusão de alguns itens. A versão de 17 itens da motivação do professor para ensinar foi simples e os índices de ajuste estimados foram muito bons.ConclusãoAs altas cargas fatoriais obtidas entre os itens e os dois fatores aos quais eles se agrupam permitem considerá-los representantes dos construtos Motivação Autônoma e Controlada.Núcleo de Editoração - PUC-Campinas2023-10-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/xmlhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/10052Psychological Studies; Vol. 40 (2023): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; Vol. 40 (2023): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; v. 40 (2023): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)1982-0275reponame:Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPengporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/10052/7406https://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/10052/7407Copyright (c) 2023 Poliana Chinelli de OLIVEIRA, Sueli Édi RUFINI, José Aloyseo BZUNECKhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess OLIVEIRA, Poliana Chinelli deRUFINI, Sueli ÉdiBZUNECK, José Aloyseo2024-04-23T10:36:29Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/10052Revistahttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudosPRIhttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudos/oaisbi.ne_estpsi@puc-campinas.edu.br||estudosdepsicologia@puc-campinas.edu.br||psychologicalstudies@puc-campinas.edu.br1982-02750103-166Xopendoar:2024-04-23T10:36:29Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
