SOARES, Adriana Benevides; MOURAO, Luciana  e  MELLO, Thatiana Valory dos Santos. Study to the construction of an instrument of academic-social behaviors to college students. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2011, vol.11, n.2, pp.488-506. ISSN 1808-4281.

This research is aimed to construct and psychometrically validate a specific instrument able to measure academic-social behaviors from college students. We used to collect data the semi-structured script for interviews and the questionnaire in the stage of psychometric validation. The drafting process generated an initial list of 240 items based both on the literature and the testimony, on this subject, from 100 interviews with college professors. After validation by judges, a version with 100 items associated with a Likert scale was administered to 559 college students from different courses in the state of Rio de Janeiro from eight higher education institutions, three public and five private. The principal components analysis with varimax rotation indicated final structure with 34 items and 6 factors, namely, behavior in the classroom, unruly behavior in class, warmth in interpersonal relationships, disrespect to teachers and peers, self-exposure and assertiveness, effective academic behavior. Like a criterion of residence for each item the minimum factor loading of 0.30 on a single factor. The factors showed high internal consistency (Cronbach's Alpha) ranging from 0.59 to 0.80. These results indicated this scale for the studies of social behavior in students.
