Resumo: The assessment of professional interests plays a prominent role in the process of career counseling. However, there are not many career assessment instruments available in Brazil. Given this reality, this study aimed at searching for validity evidence for the “Escala de Aconselhamento Profissional”, a Brazilian scale, by comparing it with another instrument, the “Teste de Fotos de Profissões” (Test of Photos of Professions, a Brazilian version of the Berufsbilder Test), also used to assess professional interest. One hundred ninety-six undergraduate Pedagogy, Dental, and Computer Science students in their 5th and 7th semesters of a private university participated in this study. They were aged between 19 and 49 years (Mean - 24.24, Standard Deviation - 4.89), and 62.8% were females. The instruments were collectively administered in regular classrooms at the university. Results showed significant correlations between all dimensions of the “Escala de Aconselhamento Profissional” and those of the “Teste de Fotos de Profissões” revealing convergent validity evidence.

Diante dessa realidade, o presente estudo teve como objetivo a busca de evidências de validade para a Escala de Aconselhamento Profissional por meio da comparação com outro instrumento, o Teste de Fotos de Profissões, que avalia inclinações profissionais. Participaram do estudo 196 estudantes do 5º e 7º semestres dos cursos de Pedagogia, Odontologia e Ciência da Computação de uma universidade particular, com idades entre 19 e 49 anos (Média = 24,24; Desvio-Padrão = 4,89), sendo 62,8% do sexo feminino. Os instrumentos foram aplicados coletivamente nas salas de aula da instituição. Os resultados mostraram correlações significativas entre todas as dimensões da Escala de Aconselhamento Profissional e os fatores do Teste de Fotos de Profissões, revelando evidências de validade de construto convergente.Núcleo de Editoração - PUC-Campinas2023-03-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/8032Psychological Studies; Vol. 33 No. 4 (2016): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; Vol. 33 Núm. 4 (2016): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; v. 33 n. 4 (2016): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)1982-0275reponame:Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/8032/5545Copyright (c) 2023 Fernanda OTTATI, Ana Paula Porto NORONHAhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess OTTATI, FernandaNORONHA, Ana Paula Porto2023-03-24T13:15:32Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/8032Revistahttps://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:2023-03-24T13:15:32Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
