Abstract

GODOY, Silvia; OTTATI, Fernanda  and  NORONHA, Ana Paula Porto. Professional interest and styles of thinking and creating of Psychology students. Bol. psicol [online]. 2009, vol.59, n.131, pp. 191-207. ISSN 0006-5943.

The purpose of the study was to explore the relationship between professional preferences and styles of thinking and creating using the Escala de Características de Atividades Profissionais (ECAP) and the Escala Estilos de Pensar e Criar. Possible average differences based on the age and school grade variables were assessed. Participants in this study were 65 students between 17 and 46 years old, 80% female, attending a Psychology course in a private university. The main results demonstrated that the highest ECAP averages are related to preference for indicators of environment and professional activities that have more enhancement and are more recognized while the divergent relational factor of the Escala Estilos de Pensar e Criar was the one that presented more significant coefficients with the ECAP items.
