Resumo: | New studies and ways of intervening with the elderly population are emerging, given that we now know that aging not necessarily accompanied by cognitive decline. Along with studies on other aspects of aging, the metacognitive processes that coordinate cognitive performance, have begun to acquire importance in the literature over the past four decades. Metacognition represents thoughts and knowledge that individuals have about their own thoughts and cognitive processes. Two of its basic elements are: metacognitive knowledge, characterized by awareness of the processes and skills necessary to perform a given task, and control or cognitive self-regulation, which includes judgment about the effectiveness of the strategies being used and the establishment of new ones. Considering that metacognition facilitates the effective performance of activities and given the lack of Brazilian instruments to measure it, the main objective of the study is the development of a scale for the assessment of metacognition among the elderly and analysis of the validity and accuracy of this scale. The first stage of the study involved the development of the Metacognition Scale - Senior (EMETA-S), for each topic, the participant, must choose from four possible answers, the one that best characterizes him or her. The second stage aimed to investigate evidence of content validity. For this step, the instructions and the 74 original items of the instrument were sent to three experts. The index of agreement resulting from the analysis of the responses of the experts was 68%. The scale was also tested with a sample of 15 participants (60 aged years or over) in verify whether or not the instructions and the items were understandable, which resulted in some changes in the wording of the instructions and items, as well as in the descriptors of the scale, constituting the third stage of the study. A factor analysis performed on the data gathered with a sample of 194 participants revealed the presence of two factors: selfregulation and metacognitive knowledge, accounting for 27.18% of the variance in the responses. After exclusion of items that had factor loadings below 0.30, items misunderstood by participants and items that were highly similar to others items, the final version of the EMETA-S was composed of 27 items, with internal consistency of 0.85. No significant differences were found between the average performance with respect to variables such as gender, education and age of participants. The analysis of the validity and accuracy of the items indicated suitability of the concept initially proposed and good internal consistency of the scale. |

Juntamente com os estudos sobre os aspectos do envelhecimento, os processos metacognitivos, que coordenam o desempenho cognitivo, passaram a adquirir importância na literatura das últimas quatro décadas. A metacognição corresponde a pensamentos e conhecimentos que os indivíduos possuem sobre seus próprios pensamentos e processos cognitivos. Dois de seus elementos básicos são: o conhecimento metacognitivo, caracterizado pela consciência sobre os processos e competências necessárias para a realização de uma determinada tarefa; e o controle ou autorregulação cognitiva, que compreende o julgamento sobre a eficácia das estratégias e o estabelecimento de novas. Tendo em vista que a metacognição facilita o desempenho eficaz em atividades e a carência de instrumentos nacionais que a mensurem, este estudo tem como objetivo principal a elaboração dos itens de uma escala destinada à avaliação da metacognição em idosos e a análise das evidências de validade e precisão. A primeira etapa do estudo consistiu na elaboração da Escala de Metacognição Sênior (EMETA-S), do tipo Likert de quatro pontos, sendo que o participante, a partir da leitura de afirmações, deve escolher, dentre as quatro possibilidades de resposta, aquela que mais o caracteriza. A segunda etapa teve como objetivo a investigação das evidências de validade baseadas no conteúdo. Para esta etapa, as instruções e os 74 itens originais do instrumento foram enviados a três especialistas. O índice de concordância resultante da análise das respostas dos especialistas foi de 68%. A escala também foi aplicada em uma amostra piloto de 15 participantes (60 anos de idade ou mais) com a finalidade de verificar se as instruções e os itens eram compreensíveis, o que resultou em algumas modificações na redação das instruções e dos itens, bem como nos descritores da escala, sendo esta a terceira etapa do estudo. A análise fatorial realizada na amostra de 194 participantes revelou a presença de dois fatores: autorregulação e conhecimento metacognitivo, responsáveis por 27,18% da variância da escala. Após exclusão de itens que apresentaram cargas fatoriais abaixo de 0,30, itens com baixa concordância entre juízes, itens mal compreendidos pelos participantes e itens muito semelhantes entre si, a EMETA-S ficou composta por 27 itens, com consistência interna de 0,85. Não foram encontradas diferenças significativas entre a média do desempenho em relação às variáveis gênero, escolaridade e idade dos participantes. A análise das evidências de validade e precisão indicou adequação dos itens ao conceito proposto inicialmente e boa consistência interna da escala.Universidade Federal de Minas Geraisapplication/pdfporUniversidade Federal de São CarlosPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Psicologia - PPGPsiUFSCarBRPsicologia cognitivaMetacogniçãoInstrumentos de medidaEnvelhecimentoMedidas psicológicasMetacognitionPsychological measuresAgingCIENCIAS HUMANAS::PSICOLOGIAEscala metacognitiva para idosos: elaboração de itens e análise dos parâmetros psicométricosMetacognitive scale for the elderly: development of items and analysis of psychometric parametersinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesis-1-14df91e3a-f24c-4012-9faa-cb47bf653547info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Institucional da UFSCARinstname:Universidade Federal de São Carlos (UFSCAR)instacron:UFSCARORIGINAL5140.pdfapplication/pdf1151296https://repositorio.ufscar.br/bitstream/ufscar/6041/1/5140.pdf666779db7aeeb1a625a2d739cd1051edMD51TEXT5140.pdf.txt5140.pdf.txtExtracted texttext/plain0https://repositorio.ufscar.br/bitstream/ufscar/6041/2/5140.pdf.txtd41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427eMD52THUMBNAIL5140.pdf.jpg5140.pdf.jpgIM Thumbnailimage/jpeg5853https://repositorio.ufscar.br/bitstream/ufscar/6041/3/5140.pdf.jpg466e1cc41a05021b948bc2eb1cf3c48bMD53ufscar/60412023-09-18 18:31:37.603oai:repositorio.ufscar.br:ufscar/6041Repositório InstitucionalPUBhttps://repositorio.ufscar.br/oai/requestopendoar:43222023-09-18T18:31:37Repositório Institucional da UFSCAR - Universidade Federal de São Carlos (UFSCAR)false |
