Resumo: Motivation to read as well as to learn are important variables for learning. This study is aimed at describingthe steps for constructing a reading motivation scale for teenagers and youngsters, as well as at presenting its psychometric properties and construct validity. The sample was composed of 329 students from the 6th year of elementary school to the 3rd year of high school. Exploratory factor analysis of the 83 items revealed six factors coherent with the continuum of Self Determination Theory with internal consistencies ranging from 0.97 to 0.76. These initial results evince the promising psychometric properties of the scale for its use in the educational context.

Participaram 329 estudantes do 6° ano do Ensino Fundamental ao 3° Ano do Ensino Mpedio. Da Análise Fatorial exploratória dos 83 itens da escala emergiram seis fatores coerentes com o continuum motivacional descrito pela Teoria da Autodeterminação, com consistência interna entre 0,97 e 0,76. Esses resultados iniciais revelam propriedades psicométricas promissoras da escala para uso em contexto educativo.  Instituto de Psicologia - Universidade de Brasília2017-02-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/revistaptp/article/view/17967Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; V. 32, N. 2Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; V. 32, N. 2Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; V. 32, N. 2Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; V. 32, N. 21806-34460102-3772reponame:Psicologia (Universidade de Brasília.
