Propriedades Psicométricas da versão brasileira da escala de comprometimento com a carreira

The definition and assessment of the workers connection with his/her career is relevant in the context of instability which characterizes the contemporary labor world. Career commitment means the individuals motivation to dedicate to his/her development as a worker in a determined field of activity. The psychometric properties of the Brazilian version of the Career Commitment Scale (CCS) were investigated. The CCS is composed of three factors: identity, planning and resilience. A sample of 668 workers, 415 men and 253 women, ages ranging between 25 and 65 years old, with a minimum of five years of career time and levels of education between technical training and post-graduation answered the scale. The factorial analysis found three factors according to the dimensions proposed for the construct. Internal consistence indicators were satisfactory both for the total scale and each entrenchment dimensions, revealing that all items contribute for higher scale reliability. Higher levels of education showed association with enhanced career identity. The analysis showed satisfactory construct validity and reliability qualities for the Brazilian version of the Career Commitment Scale.The definition and assessment of the workers connection with his/her career is relevant in the context of instability which characterizes the contemporary labor world.

Escalas de Estilos Interpessoais (ESEI): construção, validade fatorial e consistência interna

This paper describes the construction and initial validation of the Interpersonal Style Inventory (ISI). Interpersonal style is a multidimensional construct defined as the way an individual look for acceptance and social status. A sample of 984 subjects with ages ranging from 18 to 63 years, 395 men and 589 women, answered the ISI. Exploratory factorial analysis revealed an eight factor structure consistent with theoretical categories of interpersonal style described in the literature. The eight factors explained 46.2% of total variance, and internal consistency indexes for the subscales ranged from good to excellent. Results suggest that ISI is a promising tool for using in research and applied settings, though, further evidence of its validity is still necessary.

Relaciones entre tipos de interés ocupacional y bases psicológicas de comprometimiento organizativo

Os interesses ocupacionais sao correlatos importantes de comportamentos e atitudes relacionadas a carreira. Porem, nao foram devidamente investigadas as relacoes entre preferencias ocupacionais e atitudes direcionadas a organizacao empregadora. Esta pesquisa investigou a relacao entre interesses ocupacionais e comprometimento organizacional. Foram utilizadas as categorias de interesses descritas por Holland (realista, investigativo, artistico, social, empreendedor e convencional) e o modelo tridimensional do comprometimento organizacional de Meyer e Allen (dimensoes afetiva, normativa e instrumental). Uma amostra de 119 homens e 74 mulheres com graduacao superior em diversas areas, idades entre 26 e 57 anos, empregados em organizacoes da iniciativa privada na regiao sul do Brasil, participou do estudo. O interesse empreendedor foi associado a maior comprometimento de base afetiva. E o comprometimento instrumental foi mais elevado em trabalhadores com interesses artisticos e investigativos. Sugere-se que diferencas de personalidade e valores de carreira relacionados a interesses ocupacionais favorecem atitudes mais instrumentais ou mais afetivas para com a organizacao empregadora.
