Resumo: Students' satisfaction has been valued as an indicator of the quality of higher education institutions, and as a relevant variable in explaining their involvement, learning and persistence. Satisfaction, associated to the diverse contexts of students' academic experience, is understood as a construct of students' evaluation of the institution, academic climate, course and interpersonal relationships. Based on a sample of students from two Portuguese Higher Education institutions, one public and another private, we analyze the validity evidence of the Academic Domain Satisfaction Scale. The results of a confirmatory factorial analysis suggest the one-dimensional nature of the scale. On the other hand, adequate levels of internal consistency of its items, as well as significant correlations between the result in the scale and indicators of the students' affective disposition, academic performance and dropout intentions, point towards the validity of the measure.

A satisfação, associada aos diversos contextos da experiência académica, pode ser entendida como a apreciação que os estudantes realizam da instituição, clima académico, curso e relações interpessoais. Com base numa amostra de 704 estudantes, de duas instituições portuguesas, uma pública e outra privada, analisam-se as evidências de validade da Escala de Satisfação no Domínio Académico. Os resultados da análise fatorial confirmatória sugerem a natureza unidimensional da escala. Por outro lado, níveis adequados de consistência interna dos seus itens, assim como correlações significativas entre o resultado na escala e indicadores da disposição afetiva, rendimento, e intenção de abandono escolar, apontam no sentido da validade da medida.Agradecimentos: A presente investigação foi financiada pela Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia através do financiamento ao CIE-ISPA (UID/CED/04853/2013 e UID/CED/04853/2016) e ao CIEd-UMinho (UID/CED/01661/2019).Asociación Iberoamericana de Diagnóstico y Evaluación Psicológica (AIDEP)Universidade do MinhoAlmeida, Leandro S.Taveira, Maria do CéuPeixoto, FranciscoSilva, Jose CastroGouveia, Maria João20202020-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/1822/72253por1135-38482183-605110.21865/RIDEP54.1.08https://www.aidep.org/sites/default/files/2020-01/RIDEP54-Art8.pdfinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-07-21T12:48:57Zoai:repositorium.sdum.uminho.pt:1822/72253Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T19:47:18.045924Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse

description Students' satisfaction has been valued as an indicator of the quality of higher education institutions, and as a relevant variable in explaining their involvement, learning and persistence. Satisfaction, associated to the diverse contexts of students' academic experience, is understood as a construct of students' evaluation of the institution, academic climate, course and interpersonal relationships. Based on a sample of students from two Portuguese Higher Education institutions, one public and another private, we analyze the validity evidence of the Academic Domain Satisfaction Scale. The results of a confirmatory factorial analysis suggest the one-dimensional nature of the scale. On the other hand, adequate levels of internal consistency of its items, as well as significant correlations between the result in the scale and indicators of the students' affective disposition, academic performance and dropout intentions, point towards the validity of the measure.
