Resumo: Professional identity is a central construct to understand career construction, especially during transitions to work. Aware of the importance of this construct, the objective of this study was to adapt to Portuguese and to present the validity evidences of two scales directed to students in professional education: The Clarity of Professional Identity (ECIP) and the Macleod Clark Professional Identity (EIP). The study was divided into two stages: content validity, and internal structure and convergent validity. In this last stage participated 424 university students, of both sexes, subdivided in two independent samples. Confirmatory factor analysis, correlation and reliability tests were performed. After the factor analysis, the ECIP maintained its original structure, while the EIP needed to be adjusted by reducing items. The reliability and correlation tests signaled good evidences of trustworthiness and convergent validity of the two measures. It is concluded that the adapted versions of both professional identity scales have satisfactory psychometric qualities and can be used in future research on the topic. We expect that the results can contribute to cross-cultural studies of the professional identity of students in professional education.

Cientes da importância desse constructo, o objetivo deste estudo foi adaptar para a língua portuguesa e apresentar evidências de validade de duas escalas direcionadas a estudantes em formação profissional: Escala de Clareza da Identidade Profissional (ECIP) e Escala de Identidade Profissional de Macleod Clark (EIP). O estudo dividiu-se em duas etapas: validade de conteúdo e validade da estrutura interna e convergente. Nesta última etapa participaram 424 universitários, de ambos os sexos, subdivididos em duas amostras independentes. Realizou-se análise fatorial confirmatória, testes de correlação e de confiabilidade. Após as análises fatoriais, a ECIP manteve sua estrutura original, enquanto a EIP precisou ser ajustada com a redução de itens. Os testes de confiabilidade e das correlações sinalizaram boas evidências de fidedignidade e de validade convergente das medidas. Conclui-se que as versões adaptadas para a língua portuguesa das duas escalas de identidade profissional apresentam qualidades psicométricas satisfatórias e podem ser utilizadas em futuras pesquisas sobre o tema. Espera-se que os resultados contribuam com estudos transculturais sobre a identidade profissional de estudantes em formação.Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra2020-07-28info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.14195/1647-8606_63-1_7https://doi.org/10.14195/1647-8606_63-1_7Psychologica; Vol. 63 No. 1 (2020); 119-137Psychologica; Vol. 63 N.º 1 (2020); 119-1371647-86060871-465710.14195/1647-8606_63-1reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://impactum-journals.uc.pt/psychologica/article/view/1647-8606_63-1_7https://impactum-journals.uc.pt/psychologica/article/view/1647-8606_63-1_7/6545Direitos de Autor (c) 2020 Psychologicainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessRossi, Gessica Aparecida NunesOliveira, Marina Cardoso de2023-05-31T13:59:40Zoai:impactum-journals.uc.pt:article/5984Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T17:58:17.925829Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
