The development of performance-based tests is a relevant agenda for metacognition studies, since it reduces biases present in conventional measures, allowing the acquisition of new evidence regarding the quality of empirical identification and validation of metacognitive components. The Meta-Text, a test designed to assess the components of cogniti...
The expansion of higher education is associated with the progressive diversification of student’s profiles, such as the increasing number of older, working and female students. The transition to higher education poses challenges for students entering it, generating expectations that can impact academic adaptation. This study compared academic expec...

A MTDQ possui evidências de validade de conteúdo, mas ca...
Resumo: A autoavaliação do estudante é um processo essencial para o desenvolvimento e aprimoramento da formação acadêmica. Ela possibilita ao discente adquirir conhecimento acerca das próprias habilidades, processos e produtos e contribui para a melhoria de sua aprendizagem. Apesar do potencial da autoavaliação de beneficiar os estudantes, ela pode...
A teoria das abordagens de aprendizagem afirma que os estudantes interagem de forma superficial ou profunda com o conteúdo de ensino. Aqueles que adotam a abordagem profunda apresentam motivação intrínseca e usam estratégias cognitivas que favorecem a integração dos conhecimentos. Já os que adotam a abordagem superficial se motivam de forma extríns...
A inteligência artificial é um tema que fascina o ser humano. Com o desenvolvimento dos computadores nos anos de 1940 a 1960, foram surgindo propostas para se criar agentes virtuais inteligentes. Diferentemente de um mero banco de dados sobre determinado conhecimento, o agente inteligente, ou inteligência artificial, possui uma série de algoritmos...
The one-dimensional procrastination theory is dominant and impacts clinical practice. However, structural validity studies provide evidence that this model should be refuted. This study proposes the Bi-factor Hierarchical Model of Procrastination as an alternative. This work presents the model rationale, as well as the Procrastination Mechanisms Qu...
Psychological studies aimed at validating tests have been taking place for several years and have influenced various professions, such as music therapy. Music therapy emerged as a profession after the Second World War and since then it has proved to be effective for the treatment of various health conditions. In recent decades, studies on the valid...
Over the years, Music Therapy has focused on conducting several clinical studies to verify treatment efficacy. However, only in the last two decades the amount of studies have increased based on the validation of specific Music Therapy assessment instruments. The basis for validating these instruments has its origin in psychometry. Psychometry, in...
The Inductive Reasoning Developmental Test [Teste de Desenvolvimento do Raciocínio Indutivo-TDRI] measures seven stages of this ability. Although the TDRI presents evidence of internal and external validity, its abstract stages show some problems that produce a false-positive and false-negative classification of people on these stages. A new versio...
A teoria das abordagens de aprendizagem distingue duas formas fundamentais de construção de conhecimento. A abordagem superficial, baseada em memorização sem construção de significado, e a abordagem profunda, voltada à construção de conhecimento integrado e consistente. As primeiras avaliações das abordagens de aprendizagem utilizavam o método feno...
The predictive validity of metacognitive tests based on self-report is much lower than the assessment by think-aloud method experts (judges) with regard to the prediction of student performance. However, the scarcity of performance-based tests, that do not require judges' evaluation, prevents verifying whether this trend is only true within the exp...
p>A teoria das abordagens de aprendizagem define duas formas distintas de interação do sujeito com os objetos de conhecimento: abordagem profunda e abordagem superficial. Essa teoria tem proporcionado contribuições relevantes para a área da educação, como por exemplo predizer o desempenho acadêmico e auxiliar o professor em suas práticas pedagógica...
According to the theory of students' approaches to learning, students can construct
knowledge in either a superficial or deep manner. In the surface approach, students are motivated by extrinsic reasons and use mechanical learning strategies, while in the deep approach, they are motivated by intrinsic reasons and use high-level cognitive processing...
Is the measurement in clinics of tests based on performance, when only one measurement is taken, a correct way to indicate the true measure of that individual's ability? In this theoretical article we show that this is a wrong way. We first recall Molenaar’s approach when he invokes the ergodic theorems to show that only in ergodic populations it i...
p>A teoria das abordagens de aprendizagem tem contribuído de forma importante para as investigações sobre a forma de ensinar e aprender nos ambientes educacionais. O Teste Abordagem-em-Processo versão 2 foi elaborado por pesquisadores do LAICO com o objetivo de trazer novas contribuições para estes estudos, uma vez que mede as abordagens de aprendi...
The theory of students’ approaches to learning makes direct contributions
to the teaching-learning process. For instance, it provides a conceptual
repertoire that helps improve the teacher’s pedagogical practice and the
student’s self-assessment of their own learning. Despite its contributions,
the field of approaches has an important limitation: t...

Studies on prediction recognize the presence of a large number of
predictors of school-academic performance, as well as the existence of
well-established predictors, nevertheless some psychoeducational
variables remain little explored, even though their great potential. One of
these is reflective thinking. The Laboratory for Research on Cognitive

A “Escala de Musicabilidade: Formas de Atividade, Estágios e Qualidades de Engajamento” desenvolvida por Nordoff e Robbins tem sido utilizada internacionalmente por musicoterapeutas para avaliar duas categorias presentes em atendimentos musicoterapêuticos: coatividade rítmica instrumental e canto. Para que essa escala seja
utilizada no Brasil, é ne...
Por influência da psicometria, várias áreas da ciência avaliam a qualidade dos modelos de medidas por meio de dois pilares: validade e confiabilidade. No entanto, o problema da indeterminação do escore fatorial mostra que é necessário incluir uma avaliação da acurácia dos escores fatoriais. Visando incluir a acurácia dos escores fatoriais nas análi...
Students’ approaches to learning are an important tool used by
researchers in the field of educational psychology. The theory assumes that
students have two basic ways of approaching objects of knowledge, a deep
one and a superficial one. Both are reasonable predictors of academic
performance. The study of the learning process requires instruments...
Meta-analyses show that the correlations of approaches to learning with academic achieve-
ment are low. However, only one study has controlled these correlations in the presence of
intelligence. Our study investigates the incremental validity of the surface and deep approa-
ches taking cognitive abilities as control and applied the multiple linear...
Memorial para Promoção Docente ao Cargo de Professor Titular - Departamento de Psicologia - UFMG
This study argues that the current assessment of the student's academic is wrong. The educators, in general, were trained in a secular practice that the student' academic achievement can be evaluated through the measurement of the population or a group of students. This direct transposition of the estimate of the population to one particular studen...
Este trabalho apresenta a Escala de Abordagens de Aprendizagem e a disponibiliza para fins de ensino e pesquisa aos pesquisadores
Recent research has shown that metacognition, especially monitoring, might be as important as intelligence to predict academic performance; however, there are few studies that jointly analyze both variables in university contexts. Hence, the aim of this study is to analyze the predictive role of monitoring and intelligence on a standardized measure...

Any quantitative method is shaped by certain rules or assumptions which constitute its own rationale. It is not by chance that these assumptions determine the conditions and constraints which permit the evidence to be constructed. In this article, we argue why the Regression Tree Method’s rationale is more suitable than General Linear Model to anal...

The one-dimensional procrastination theory is dominant and impacts clinical practice. However, structural validity studies provide evidence that this model should be refuted. This study proposes the Bi-factor Hierarchical Model of Procrastination as an alternative to the dominant model. The object of this work is to present the Model rationale, as...
The students’ approaches to learning are relevant constructs for psychopegagogy since they reflect broad ways in which students deal with the objects of knowledge. The students’ approaches have been measured exclusively by self-report instruments, which compromises the evidence in the area. The Students’ Learning Approach Test: Identification of Th...
O Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio (ENEM) possui um modelo de medida restrito, caracterizado pelo postulado de que os itens marcadores de cada domínio se vinculam exclusivamente ao seus domínios-alvo. Estudos pregressos sugerem, por meio de evidências indiretas, que esse modelo não seria válido. No entanto, esse postulado ainda não foi diretamente av...
This preprint shows initial evidence that the complexity cost criterion may not be a good approach in the regression tree method
Metacognition is predominantly measured by the self-report and think-aloud methods. This is problematic since they produce considerable both respondent and confirmatory biases, which implies damage to the measurement. The Metacognitive Monitoring Test (MMT) was created to evaluate metacognition through performance and eliminate the aforementioned b...
As most evidence for mental health impacts of the COVID-19 crisis is cross-sectional, the present study aimed to analyze the longitudinal development of psychological suffering among 619 Brazilian adults by assessing mental health outcomes and individual factors in two periods: a year before and a month after the break of the pandemic. As major fin...

teste de abordagens de aprendizagem baseado em desempenho e focado na análise processual envolvendo o contexto de aprendizagem de conteúdos escolares ou universitários pelo estudante.
Students' Approaches to Learning is an important theory in Educational Psychology that investigates the interaction of students with objects of knowledge and how this interaction affects learning outcomes. Recently, the Students' Learning Approach Test (SLAT-Thinking) was proposed as a pioneer methodology to investigate approaches to learning throu...
In the 1930s, a group of scientists argued that the empirical concatenation of
observable elements was not possible in the human and social sciences and was,
thus, not feasible to obtain objective measurements similar to those found in physics.
To address this issue, mathematical theories that do not require concatenation were
proposed in the 1960s...

Students’ Approaches to Learning (SAL) theory assumes that the deep approach generates better academic performance when compared to the surface approach. This study tests this hypothesis, using a randomized experimental design of pre-and post-test case-control. Students in a discipline of a biology course were randomly allocated to the experimental...
In Brazil, there is a great demand for measurement instruments that are validated and translated
into Portuguese. In order to contribute to this subject in this research was to evaluate the
translation of the Child-Therapist Relationship in Coactive Musical Experience Scale and its
manual into Brazilian. As a methodology, we performed three steps o...
Dropout stems from a complex, gradual process of decision-making in which the demands and benefits of university attendance are weighed. Early identification of at-risk students benefits from quick and large-scale screening instruments. This study presents the dimensionality of a screening instrument for students at risk of dropping out of Higher E...
