Abstract

GOMES, Andreia et al. Escala de orientações gerais para objetivos de desempenho: Estudos de adaptação para o ensino secundário. Aná. Psicológica [online]. 2018, vol.36, n.1, pp.101-114. ISSN 0870-8231.  https://doi.org/10.14417/ap.1262.

This paper aims to present the results of the Portuguese adaptation of General Achievement Goal Orientation Scale (GAGOS; McInerney & Yeung, 2000). This instrument has five different motivation scales: Motivation Value, Global Motivation, General Mastery, General Performance and General Social. The work of adaptation consisted in a exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis and internal consistency analysis from the data of two samples of 617 and 418 High School students. The results suggest a solution with good psychometric properties, in terms of validity as acceptable fidelity, with differences per gender and relationship with age and education level. The results discussed and suggestions presented.

Keywords : Goals; Achievement; Motivation; High school; Scale.
