Resumo: The main goal of this research was to adapt and validate a scale of reading strategies assessment for the Portuguese population. The Reading Strategy Use (RSU) is a measure of cognitive and metacognitive strategies, consisting of 22 items. The sample was composed of 428 students. The factor structure of the scale was investigated by means of confirmatory factor analysis. The fit of two factor and one factor models was tested. The results supported a one factor structure. Cronbach's alpha value was.85. The reading strategies exhibited statistically significant correlations with academic achievement in the Portuguese Language. Statistically significant differences between the female and the male participants in the RSU results were observed, with girls achieving higher scores. These results provide evidence of validity and reliability for the Portuguese version of the RSU. The implications of the results, limitations and issues to be approached in future investigations are discussed.

A Reading Strategy Use (RSU) é uma medida de avaliação de estratégias cognitivas e metacognitivas, com 22 itens. A amostra foi constituída por 428 alunos do quinto e sexto ano de escolaridade. Estudou-se a estrutura da escala com recurso à análise fatorial confirmatória, testando-se o ajustamento de modelos de dois e de um fator. Obtiveram-se melhores indicadores de ajustamento para o modelo unifatorial. O valor do alfa de Cronbach foi de .85. Os resultados na RSU apresentaram correlações significativas com o desempenho escolar em Língua Portuguesa. Verificaram-se diferenças estatisticamente significativas entre os participantes do sexo feminino e masculino, com as raparigas a obterem resultados superiores. Estes resultados fornecem evidência de validade e fidelidade para a escala. São discutidas implicações dos resultados, limitações e questões a abordar em investigações futuras.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAsociación Iberoamericana de Diagnóstico y Evaluación Psicológica (AIDEP)Universidade do MinhoRibeiro, IolandaDias, OlgaOliveira, Íris MartinsMiranda, PaulaFerreira, GabrielaSaraiva, MagdaPaulo, RuiCadime, Irene Maria Dias20152015-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/1822/54238eng1135-3848info: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:RCAAP2023-07-21T12:25:41Zoai:repositorium.sdum.uminho.pt:1822/54238Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T19:19:59.781540Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
