VIEIRA, Amanda Ferreira; NUNES, Maiana Farias Olivera  y  PIRES, Jeferson Gervasio. Adaptation and Validation of the Planned Happenstance Career Inventory (PHCI) for Brazilian University Students. Aval. psicol. [online]. 2022, vol.21, n.2, pp.236-245. ISSN 1677-0471.  https://doi.org/10.15689/ap.2022.2102.20406.11.

The happenstance learning theory is a theoretical model which explains the different life trajectories due to life's non-planned events, focusing on career unpredictability. The theory assumes that it is possible to plan for chance, and five dimensions are used to assess the competences for this purpose: Optimism, Flexibility, Curiosity, Persistence and Risk taking. This article presents a translation and adaptation study of the PHCI scale for Brazil, as well as Exploratory Factor Analysis, Confirmatory Factor Analyses and reliability. A total of 511 university students answered the scale online. The set of results of the analysis of the internal structure indicated a four-factor structure, different from the original proposal of the scale, combining Persistence and Risk taking in a single dimension, with reliability ranging between .59 and .80. We discuss the composition of the factors in the Brazilian sample and possible cultural differences in the results.

Palabras clave : validity evidence; psychological evaluation; professional development; vocational guidance; chance.
