Resumo: | Within the scope of socio-cognitive theories, student engagement in school has been studied as a multidimensional construct. A four-dimensional perspective was adopted, with the dimensions: affective, cognitive, behavioural and agentic. The objective, to analyse how the variables age and parental education relate to student engagement in school. The sample consisted of 715 Portuguese public Higher Education students from the Lisbon area. The data was collected through an online survey, which included the Student Engagement in School: a Four-Dimensional Scale – Higher Education Version. Data analysis not only revealed that students of age 26 or older scored considerably higher results in engagement than younger colleagues, but also highlighted significant differences of engagement in the affective, behavioural and agentic dimensions, depending on parental education. The results, while partially corroborating the revised literature, suggest future in-depth studies. |

Para este estudo, optou-se por uma perspetiva quadridimensional a partir das dimensões afetiva, cognitiva, comportamental e agenciativa. Pretendeu-se analisar como as variáveis idade e escolaridade dos pais aparecem associadas ao envolvimento dos estudantes na escola. A amostra foi constituída em 715 estudantes portugueses do Ensino Superior Politécnico público da região de Lisboa. Os dados foram recolhidos através de um inquérito online que incluiu a escala, Envolvimento dos Alunos na Escola: uma Escala Quadri-Dimensional – Versão para Ensino Superior. A análise dos dados destacou que estudantes com 26 ou mais anos mostraram resultados no envolvimento significativamente superiores aos colegas mais jovens e salientou diferenças significativas no envolvimento deles nas dimensões afetiva, comportamental e agenciativa em função do nível de escolaridade dos pais. Os resultados corroboraram parcialmente a literatura revista e sugerem futuros estudos de aprofundamento.RCIPLCovas, FilomenaVeiga, F.
