Resumo: The aim of this study was to investigate the validity and accuracy of an instrument which assess metacognition in the elderly called Metacognitive Senior Scale (EMETA-S). A sample of 194 elderly of both sexes participated. They answered the EMETA-S, consisting of 74 items. Factor analysis with varimax rotation was performed and revealed the presence of twofactors accounted for 27.18% of the variance of the scale. After deleting items, the EMETA-S was composed of 27 items with internal consistency of 0.85. No signifi cant diff erences were found between the average performance according to the variables of sex, age and education of the participants. The analysis of the validity and accuracy indicated adequacy of the items and good internal consistency of the scale.

Participaram da amostra 194 idosos de ambos os gêneros, que responderam a própria EMETA-S, composta por 74 itens. A análise fatorial exploratória com rotação Varimax revelou a presença de dois fatores, responsáveis por 27,18% da variância da escala. Após a exclusão de itens, 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 e boa consistência interna da escala.Instituto de Psicologia - Universidade de Brasília2017-08-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/revistaptp/article/view/19493Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; V. 33 - Publicação ContinuadaPsicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; V. 33 - Publicação ContinuadaPsicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; V. 33 - Publicação ContinuadaPsicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; V. 33 - Publicação Continuada1806-34460102-3772reponame:Psicologia (Universidade de Brasília.
