Abstract
VIEIRA-SANTOS, Joene; DEL PRETTE, Almir and DEL PRETTE, Zilda Aparecida Pereira. Inventory of educational social skills of the university professor - student version (IESS-UP-Student): Preliminary data. Aval. psicol. [online]. 2018, vol.17, n.2, pp. 260-270. ISSN 1677-0471. http://dx.doi.org/10.15689/ap.2018.1702.14611.12.
This paper describes the process of elaborating the IESS-UP-Student (Study 1) and presents the data obtained in the pilot study (Study 2). Study 1 demonstrated that the instrument presents content validity evidence and that 92.3% of the items were undoubtedly understood by university students. Study 2 showed that several items were sensitive to verify the existence of differences in the repertoire of educational social skills (ESS) of university professors in function of several variables (sex of the professor, area of expertise, first degree, prior knowledge of the professor, the assessed professor being a internship supervisor or mentor in scientific initiation or thesis reviewer, and respondent satisfaction with professor performance). The IESS-UP-Student can prove to be a valuable tool in providing feedback to the professor about their performance, as well as verifying the effectiveness of intervention programs aimed at the development of ESS of these professors.
