GANDA, Danielle Ribeiro  and  BORUCHOVITCH, Evely. Outros títulosAtribution of Causality in Higher Education: Analysis of the Scientific Production. Est. Inter. Psicol. [online]. 2011, vol.2, n.1, pp. 02-18. ISSN 2236-6407.

The objective of this paper was to analyze the scientific production concerning causal attributions of higher education students. Emphasis was given to preservice teacher samples. Research reports involving university students and inservice teachers, published in national and international literature from 1998 to 2011 were examined. A greater number of research was conducted internationally. The literature regarding preservice and inservice teacher's causal attributions was scarce. Overall, the relationships between attributional beliefs and psychological variables such as motivation, emotion and behavior were the prevailing issues investigated by attributional research.

Keywords : Attributional beliefs; college students; preservice teacher's training; literature review.
