          Abstract

          O presente estudo teve como objetivo validar a Escala de Abordagens de Aprendizagem (EABAP), construída para mensurar a dimensão Superficial e Profunda, em uma amostra brasileira. Fizeram parte da pesquisa 716 estudantes do ensino fundamental e médio de uma escola de Belo Horizonte. A análise fatorial exploratória foi utilizada para a identificação das dimensões e seleção dos melhores itens. Dos 27 itens estipulados, foram mantidos 17. A Análise Fatorial Confirmatória indicou a adequação da solução de um fator geral e de dois fatores específicos que representam a Abordagem Superficial e a Profunda (χ2=281,50; gl=116; CFI=0,94; GFI=0,95 e RMSEA=0,05). São discutidas implicações dos resultados para a teoria das abordagens, assim como algumas potencialidades do EABAP para a Psicologia Educacional.

          Translated abstract

          The main objective of the current study is to build and validate the Learning Approach Scale (LAS), which was developed to assess the deep and surface dimensions in a Brazilian sample. Seven hundred sixteen participants from junior and high schools in the city of Belo Horizonte took part in the research. The exploratory factor analysis was used to identify those dimensions and to select the best items. Only 17 items were kept from the 27 original ones. By the Confirmatory Factor Analysis it was possible to identify the adequacy of one general and two specific factors, the latter representing the deep and surface approaches (χ2=281.50; gl=116; CFI=0.94; GFI=0.95 and RMSEA=0.05). The implications of the results for the theory of approaches and the application of the scale in the Educational Psychology field are discussed.
