In the social and cognitive psychology literature, intentions have been known as a good predictor to a planned behavior, such as the intention to become an entrepreneur. Thus, the Social Cognitive Theory, by Bandura (1986), has been used to expand the understanding on human actions and/ or intentions to act which are influenced by the interaction between cognitive and personal factors and environmental circumstances. Due to the complexity inherent to the study of entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial intentions, other factors and different contexts affecting the antecedents of entrepreneurial intentions are needed to be examined. As such, the impact of entrepreneurial passion and creativity on entrepreneurial intention, in a developing South American country, like Brazil, could be explored. Hence, this work has aimed to analyze the relationship between creativity and entrepreneurial passion on entrepreneurial intention, using the framework of the Social Cognitive Theory. A quantative research method was adopted, conducted through a survey of university students at PUCRS, from two different graduation courses and approaches: i) business management (managerial approach) and ii) computer science (technical approach). In all, 338 valid responses were obtained, which were analyzed through structural equation modeling technique, enabling the validation of the theoretical model proposed and the test of five hypothesis. The results showed both a direct and indirect positive relationship between entrepreneurial passion on entrepreneurial intention. Regarding the creativity factor, results indicated only an indirect effect of creativity on entrepreneurial intention, being this relationship mediated through selfefficacy. In addition, results indicated no significant differences when examined in relation to age, gender, type of course, entrepreneurial family background, role models, risk propensity and family income. However, in relation to the course progress, a possible difference in the relation between creativity and self-efficacy was observed in the model examined. This work contributes, from a practitioner point of view, in underlining the university?s role, through courses and workshops, in increasing the self-efficacy among graduates students, as well as stimulating the individual passion to become an entrepreneur, in order to expand entrepreneurial intention. From a theoretical point of view, this work supports existing literature on the positive impact that creativity and entrepreneurial passion have on entrepreneurial intentions, especially considering the mediator role of self-efficacy. Also, it validates a theoretical model based on the Social Cognitive Theory in a developing South American background, Brazil. / O empreendedorismo possui grande impacto para a sociedade, criando empregos e propiciando o desenvolvimento econ?mico regional. Anterior ao ato de empreender, existe a inten??o de empreender, sendo reconhecida como um relevante propulsor do comportamento empreendedor e muito investigada a partir da perspectiva da psicologia social e cognitiva. Por contemplar as rela??es entre o comportamento individual, o meio externo e os fatores cognitivos e pessoais, a Teoria Social Cognitiva tem sido usada para ampliar a compreens?o da a??o humana e/ou da inten??o de agir, sendo, por esse motivo, utilizada na investiga??o da inten??o empreendedora. Observa-se, no entanto, que devido ? complexidade inerente ao estudo do empreendedorismo e da inten??o de empreender, outros fatores e contextos antecedentes ? inten??o empreendedora s?o demandados. Como exemplo, cabe destacar os poss?veis efeitos da paix?o empreendedora e da criatividade na inten??o empreendedora, no contexto de um pa?s sul-americano em desenvolvimento, o Brasil. Deste modo, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo analisar a rela??o existente entre a criatividade e a paix?o empreendedora sobre a inten??o de empreender, usando a perspectiva da Teoria Social Cognitiva. Para tanto, foi realizado uma pesquisa quantitativa, com coleta de dados a partir de uma survey aplicada para estudantes universit?rios da PUCRS, provenientes de duas gradua??es de enfoques distintos, uma gerencial (Administra??o) e outra t?cnica (Inform?tica). Foram obtidas 338 respostas v?lidas, as quais foram analisadas por meio da t?cnica de modelagem de equa??es estruturais, sendo validado o modelo de mensura??o proposto e efetuado o teste de cinco hip?teses. Os resultados apontaram para uma rela??o direta e indireta da paix?o empreendedora na inten??o empreendedora dos estudantes. No tocante ? criatividade, os resultados indicaram uma rela??o indireta, via autoefic?cia, com a inten??o empreendedora. Cabe destacar, igualmente, que as rela??es propostas no modelo n?o demonstraram diferen?as significativas entre a idade, o g?nero, o curso, a presen?a de pais empreendedores, o referencial profissional, a propens?o ao risco e a renda. Por outro lado, no quesito associado ao andamento do curso foi observado uma poss?vel diferen?a na rela??o da criatividade com a da autoefic?cia. Esse trabalho contribui, do ponto de vista pr?tico, por destacar a import?ncia da universidade, por meio de cursos e especializa??es, em aumentar a autoefic?cia nos estudantes universit?rios, al?m de despertar e estimular a paix?o por empreender, de modo a encorajar a inten??o empreendedora estudantil. Do ponto de vista te?rico, o presente trabalho forneceu suporte ao impacto da criatividade e da paix?o empreendedora na inten??o de empreender, em especial considerando a media??o da autoefic?cia, validando um modelo com base na Teoria Social Cognitiva na conjuntura brasileira.

Autoefic?cia ? a cren?a na habilidade de desempenhar com sucesso determinada tarefa ou de apresentar um comportamento que leve a um resultado desej?vel. A enfermagem necessita conhecer a rela??o entre autoefic?cia e qualidade de vida (QV) na ocorr?ncia das UVs, na busca de exercer o cuidado hol?stico. Dessa maneira, este estudo objetivou analisar a rela??o da autoefic?cia para controle da dor e para funcionalidade com a QV de pessoas com UV na aten??o prim?ria ? sa?de. Trata-se de um estudo transversal, anal?tico, quantitativo, realizado com pessoas com UV em unidades de estrat?gia de sa?de da fam?lia e unidades mistas de sa?de em Natal/RN. Como instrumentos foram utilizados question?rio de caracteriza??o sociodemogr?fica e de sa?de, os dom?nios autoefic?cia para dor e autoefic?cia para funcionalidade do de uma escala de autoefic?cia para dor cr?nica e o Charing Cross Venous Ulcer Questionnaire (CCVUQ). A amostra totalizou 101 pessoas na escala de autoefic?cia para funcionalidade e 89 na autoefic?cia para dor, pois doze indiv?duos relataram n?o sentir dor no momento da coleta, e por isso, foram exclu?dos da aplica??o da escala de autoefic?cia para dor. O projeto obteve parecer favor?vel do comit? de ?tica do Hospital Universit?rio Onofre Lopes (CAAE n? 07556312.0.0000.5537), atendendo a resolu??o 466/12. Houve predom?nio de mulheres (66,3%), idosos (61,4%), casados ou em uni?o est?vel (63,4%), baixa renda (90,1%) e escolaridade (85,1%), inativos (75,2%), doen?as cr?nicas associadas (60,4%), mais de seis horas de sono/dia (82,2%), n?o etilistas/tabagistas (80,2%), les?o cr?nica (73,3%) e dor moderada ? intensa (76,2%). A autoefic?cia para dor (m?dia 67,3 e DP 26,6) esteve menos comprometida que a autoefic?cia para funcionalidade (m?dia 59,4 DP 25,9), apresentando signific?ncia estat?stica (p-valor=0,011). N?o foram encontradas associa??es significativas entre autoefic?cia para controle da dor e para funcionalidade com as caracter?sticas sociodemogr?ficas e de sa?de. Ao se considerar a m?dia total do CCVUQ (m?dia 52,1 e DP 16,6), a QV dos pesquisados apresentou tend?ncia de piora, sendo o dom?nio est?tica o mais comprometido (m?dia 57,6 e DP 24,0), seguido de estado emocional (m?dia 57,0 e DP 25,7), intera??o social (m?dia 48,4 e DP 21,4) e atividades dom?sticas (m?dia 43,6 e DP 23,3).Verificaram-se correla??es negativas e significativas entre a autoefic?cia para dor e o escore total do CCVUQ (r = -0,345; p = 0,001), o dom?nio intera??o social (r = -0,339; p = 0,001), atividades dom?sticas (r = -0,314; p = 0,003) e estado emocional (r = -0,219; p = 0,039). Da mesma maneira, entre autoefic?cia para funcionalidade e o escore total do CCVUQ (r = -0,565; p < 0,001), o dom?nio intera??o social (r = -0,604; p < 0,001), atividades dom?sticas (r = -0,647; p < 0,001) e estado emocional (r = -0,260; p = 0,009). O dom?nio est?tica apresentou correla??o negativa, por?m fraca e n?o significativa com a autoefic?cia para dor (r = -0,135; p = 0,206) e para funcionalidade (r = -0, 183; p = 0,068). O estudo evidenciou um comprometimento da autoefic?cia para controle da dor e para funcionalidade e da QV em pessoas com UV, indicando a necessidade de atua??o da enfermagem em estrat?gias para melhorar esses aspectos, contribuindo na cicatriza??o das les?es. / Venous ulcers (UV) are the result of deep venous insufficiency or obstruction leading to venous hypertension in the lower limbs and lesions. Self-efficacy is the belief in the ability to successfully perform a given task or exhibit behavior that leads to a desirable outcome. Nursing needs to know and explore the influence of self-efficacy on quality of life (QOL) of people with UV, seeking to exercise holistic care. Thus, this study aimed to analyze the correlation of self-efficacy for pain control and functionality with the QOL of people with UV in primary health care. It is a cross-sectional, analytical, quantitative study with people with UV in family health strategy and mixed units in Natal / RN. We used the instruments: sociodemographic and health questionnaire, domains self-efficacy for pain control and self-efficacy for functionality of Scale of Self-Efficacy for Chronic Pain (SFCD) and the Charing Cross Venous Ulcer Questionnaire (CCVUQ). The sample included 101 people in the self-efficacy scale for functionality and 89 in self-efficacy for pain, for twelve patients reported no pain at the time of collection, and therefore were excluded from the application of the scale of selfefficacy for pain. The project was approved by the ethics committee of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (CAAE No. 07556312.0.0000.5537), serving Resolution 466/12. Women predominated (66.3%), elderly (61.4%), married or in a stable relationship (63.4%), low income (90.1%) and education (85.1%), inactive (75.2%), associated chronic diseases (60.4%), more than six hours of sleep / day (82.2%), non-drinkers / smokers (80.2%), chronic injury (73.3%) and moderate to severe pain (76.2%). Self-efficacy for pain (mean 67.3, SD 26.6) was less committed to the self-efficacy for functionality (mean 59.4 SD 25.9), with statistical difference (pvalue = 0.011). No significant associations were found between self-efficacy for pain control and functionality with the sociodemographic and health characteristics. When considering the total mean CCVUQ (mean 52.1, SD 16.6), QOL of respondents tended to worsen, with the aesthetic domain the most committed (mean 57.6, SD 24.0), followed by emotional state (mean 57.0, SD 25.7), social interaction (mean 48.4, SD 21.4) and household activities (mean 43.6, SD 23.3) . We found negative and significant correlations between self-efficacy for pain and CCVUQ total score (r = -0,324; p = 0,001), the social interaction domain (r = -0,278; p = 0,008), household activities (r = - 0,285; p = 0,007) and state emotional (r = -0,247; p = 0,019). Likewise, between selfefficacy for functionality and the CCVUQ total score (r = -0,553; p < 0,001), the social interaction domain (r = -0,553; p < 0,001), household activities (r = -0,594; p < 0,001) and emotional status (r = -0,259; p = 0,009). The aesthetic domain showed negative correlation but weak and not significant with self-efficacy for pain (r = -0, 155; p = 0,147) and functionality (r = -0,189; p = 0,058). It became evident the correlation between self-efficacy for pain control and functionality and the domains social interaction, household activities and emotional state, the quality of life of people with UV

The teaching self-efficacy refers to the teacher's confidence in their own abilities to perform teaching activities associated with perceived social support that can help the adaptation of the individual during the transition to teaching. It is understood that this transition is not finished with the completion of graduation, it extends until the first years of teaching practice. The total sample consisted of 281 participants. The scale was composed of three parts: [1] Teacher Beliefs Scale - short version, [2] Inventory of Emotional Support in the Transition to Teaching (IAETD) and [3] Participants Characterization Questionnaire. The results obtained by means of confirmatory factor analysis indicated evidence of instrument validity and good internal consistency in the factors. The better adjusted models presented the teacher's self-efficacy in three factors: efficacy in instructional strategies (EIS) effectiveness in managing classroom (EMC) and efficacy in student engagement (ESA); the social and emotional support to two factors: emotional support and professional support. It was found that training in public or private institutions does not imply distinctions in perceptions of the teacher self-efficacy and the social emotional support for both groups. However, when related to sex, women had greater efficacy in student engagement than men in both groups. Among teachers, those without postgraduate degrees demonstrated higher self-efficacy to motivate students than teachers with postgraduate degrees. Teachers with plans to stay in teaching careers felt themselves more professionally supported than those with plans to switch careers. It was also found that the older the teachers, the lower the self-efficacy for managing the classroom and lower the perception of professional support. In the group of students, the ones who were working were perceived to be more effective in managing the classroom than students that were not working. Finally, the weak relationships between the variables of teacher self-efficacy and social emotional support in both groups reinforced the prospects of the multidimensionality of these phenomena, indicating that other factors are combined in this relationship in the transition to teaching. Along these lines, new studies can address the dynamics and direction of these relationships in the development of teachers. / Prop??s-se, neste estudo, verificar a rela????o entre as percep????es de autoefic??cia docente e apoio social emocional de estudantes concluintes do Curso de Pedagogia e professores iniciantes na Educa????o Infantil ou nos anos iniciais do Ensino Fundamental. A autoefic??cia docente refere-se ?? confian??a do professor em suas pr??prias capacidades para desempenhar atividades docentes que associada ?? percep????o de apoio social pode favorecer a adapta????o do indiv??duo durante a transi????o para a doc??ncia. Entende-se que essa transi????o n??o ?? finalizada com a conclus??o da Gradua????o, porque ela se estende at?? os primeiros anos de atua????o docente. A amostra total foi de 281 participantes. O instrumento foi composto por tr??s partes: [1] Escala de Cren??as Docentes ??? vers??o curta, [2] Invent??rio de Apoio Emocional na Transi????o para a Doc??ncia (IAETD) e [3] Question??rio de Caracteriza????o dos Participantes. Os resultados obtidos por meio das an??lises fatoriais confirmat??rias indicaram evid??ncias de validade do instrumento e boa consist??ncia interna dos fatores. Os modelos mais ajustados apresentaram a autoefic??cia docente com tr??s fatores: efic??cia nas estrat??gias instrucionais (EEI), efic??cia no manejo em sala de aula (EMSA) e efic??cia no engajamento do aluno (EEA); e o apoio social emocional com dois fatores: apoio afetivo e apoio profissional. Verificou-se que a forma????o em institui????es p??blicas ou privadas n??o implica em distin????es nas percep????es de autoefic??cia docente e apoio social emocional para ambos os grupos. No entanto, quando relacionadas ao sexo, as mulheres apresentaram maior efic??cia no engajamento dos alunos que os homens de ambos os grupos. Entre os professores, aqueles sem P??s-Gradua????o demonstraram maior autoefic??cia para motivar os alunos que os professores com P??s-Gradua????o. Os professores com planos de permanecer na doc??ncia perceberam-se mais apoiados profissionalmente que aqueles com planos de mudar de profiss??o. Verificou-se tamb??m que quanto maior a idade dos professores menor a autoefic??cia para o manejo de sala de aula e menor a percep????o de apoio profissional. No grupo de estudantes, os que estavam trabalhando perceberam-se mais eficazes no manejo da sala de aula que os estudantes n??o trabalhadores. Por fim, as fracas rela????es entre as vari??veis de autoefic??cia docente e apoio social emocional em ambos os grupos refor??aram as perspectivas da multidimensionalidade desses fen??menos, sinalizando que outros fatores coadunam nessa rela????o durante a transi????o para a doc??ncia. Nessa linha, novos estudos podem abordar a din??mica e o sentido dessas rela????es no desenvolvimento do docente.

The nature of the research was descriptive, and the used data analysis method was quantitative which was developed through SPSS computational package, version 17.0. The used instrument for the investigation was Maslach-Burnout Inventory (MBI), and the General Perceived Self-efficacy Scale (GPSES) was applied to a sample formed from 230 nursing professionals. The statistic techniques to data analysis were: frequency analysis; factor analysis; Cronbach.s alpha; Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin test (KMO); Bartlett efericity test; percentual analysis; Spearman rank correlation analysis; and simple regression. The achieved factors from factor analysis of MBI were the same, taking into account the dimensions which Maslach initially suggested to the instrument (emotional exhaustion, lack of personal realization, and depersonalization). However, one highlights that the low internal consistence of the depersonalization dimension can occur from people.s difficulty (caused by cultural aspects) of assuming this attitude in their work environment. Through GSE, it was achieved a factor which confirmed the unidimensionality showed by the author of the instrument. In relation to the syndrome incidence, it was verified that about 50% of the researched sample presented burnout syndrome evidence. Referring to self-efficacy level, about 65% of the researched sample presented low level of self-efficacy, what can be explained by the work characteristics of these professionals. In relation to the self-efficacy influence on the Burnout syndrome, it was verified that self-efficacy can be one of the aspects which influences occupational stress chronification (burnout), mainly to the personal realization dimension. Therefore, the researched hospital organizations need reflect about their attitudes in respect to their professionals, since the numbers showed a dangerous tendency regarding a predisposition to burnout syndrome of their staff, what implies not only a significant amount of individuals who can present high levels of emotional exhaustion, lack of personal realization, and depersonalization, but also the fact that this group presents low level of self-efficacy / A presente pesquisa averigua a influ?ncia do n?vel de autoefic?cia sobre a incid?ncia da s?ndrome de burnout em profissionais de enfermagem de hospitais privados de Natal/RN. Teve natureza descritiva e o m?todo de an?lise de dados utilizado foi o quantitativo, efetivado com o aux?lio do pacote computacional SPSS, vers?o 17.0. O instrumento utilizado para a investiga??o foi o Invent?rio em Burnout de Maslach (MBI), a Escala de Autoefic?cia Geral Percebida (EAEGP) aplicados ? amostra composta por 230 profissionais de enfermagem. As t?cnicas estat?sticas para a an?lise dos dados foram: an?lise de Frequ?ncia; a An?lise Fatorial; o Alpha de Cronbach; teste Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO); teste de esfericidade de Bartlett; an?lise de percentis; an?lise de correla??o de Spearman e regress?o simples. Os fatores obtidos, a partir da An?lise Fatorial do MBI coincidiram, com as dimens?es que Maslach inicialmente sugeriu para o instrumento (Exaust?o Emocional, Falta de Realiza??o Pessoal e Despersonaliza??o). No entanto, ressalta-se para a baixa consist?ncia interna da dimens?o Despersonaliza??o que pode ser decorrente da dificuldade das pessoas (por quest?es culturais) assumirem tal postura no ambiente de trabalho. A EAEGP obteve um fator, confirmando a unidimensionalidade apontada pelo autor do instrumento. Em rela??o ? incid?ncia da s?ndrome, obteve-se que em torno de 50% da amostra pesquisada se mostrou com ind?cios de s?ndrome de burnout. No que se refere ao n?vel de autoefic?cia, em torno de 65% da amostra pesquisada apresentou um baixo n?vel de autoefic?cia, que pode ser justificado pelas caracter?sticas do trabalho desses profissionais. Em rela??o ? influ?ncia da autoefic?cia sobre a s?ndrome de burnout obteve-se que a autoefic?cia pode ser um dos aspectos que influencia a cronifica??o do estresse ocupacional (burnout), principalmente no que se refere ? dimens?o Realiza??o Pessoal. As organiza??es hospitalares pesquisadas necessitam, portanto, refletir sobre sua postura com rela??o aos seus profissionais, j? que os n?meros tra?aram uma tend?ncia perigosa no que diz respeito ? predisposi??o ? s?ndrome de burnout em seus quadros funcionais, resultando em uma porcentagem consider?vel de indiv?duos que podem apresentar altos escores de Exaust?o Emocional, Falta de Realiza??o Pessoal e Despersonaliza??o e pelo fato de grande parte dos mesmos ter apresentado um n?vel de autoefic?cia baixo

This study aims to determine the degree of association between sociodemographic characteristics and professional training to the levels of Self-Efficacy at Work (SEW) of the Administrative Assistants in a federal university. This is a descriptive research submitted to and approved by the Ethics Committee of UFRN. The method of data analysis, in quantitative nature, was accomplished with the aid of the statistical programs R and Minitab. The instrument used in research was a sociodemographic data questionnaire, variables of professional training and the General Perception of Self-efficacy Scale (GPSES), applied to the sample by 289 Assistants in Administration. Statistical techniques for data analysis were descriptive statistics, cluster analysis, reliability test (Cronbach's alpha), and test of significance (Pearson). Results show a sociodemographic profile of Assistants in Administration of UFRN with well-distributed characteristics, with 48.4% men and 51.6% female; 59.9% of them were aged over 40 years, married (49.3%), color or race white (58%) and Catholics (67.8%); families are composed of up to four people (75.8%) with children (59.4%) of all age groups; the occupation of the mothers of these professionals is mostly housewives (51.6%) with high school education up to parents (72%) and mothers (75.8%). Assistants in Administration have high levels of professional training, most of them composed two groups of servers: the former, recently hired public servants (30.7%) and another with long service (59%), the majority enter young in career and it stays until retirement, 72.4% of these professionals have training above the minimum requirement for the job. The analysis of SEW levels shows medium to high levels for 72% of assistants in administration; low SEWclassified people have shown a high average of 2.7, considered close to the overall mean presented in other studies, which is 2.9. The cluster analysis has allowed us to say that the characteristics of the three groups (Low, Medium and High SEW) are similar and can be found in the three levels of SEW representatives with all the characteristics investigated. The results indicate no association between the sociodemographic variables and professional training to the levels of self-efficacy at work of Assistants in Administration of UFRN, except for the variable color or race. However, due to the small number of people who declared themselves in color or black race (4% of the sample), this result can be interpreted as mere coincidence or the black people addressed in this study have provided a sense of efficacy higher than white and brown ones. The study has corroborated other studies and highlighted the subjectivity of the self-efficacy construct. They are needed more researches, especially with public servants for the continuity and expansion of studies on the subject, making it possible to compare and confirm the results / A autoefic?cia, construto desenvolvido por Albert Bandura desde 1977 e amplamente estudado no mundo todo, significa a cren?a do indiv?duo nas pr?prias capacidades de realizar com ?xito determinada atividade. O presente estudo tem por objetivo verificar o grau de associa??o entre as caracter?sticas sociodemogr?ficas e de capacita??o profissional com os n?veis de Autoefic?cia no Trabalho (AET) dos Assistentes em Administra??o de uma universidade federal. Trata-se de uma pesquisa descritiva, submetida e aprovada pelo Comit? de ?tica em Pesquisa da UFRN. O m?todo de an?lise de dados, de natureza quantitativa, foi efetivado com o aux?lio dos programas estat?sticos R e Minitab. O instrumento utilizado na investiga??o foi o question?rio de dados sociodemogr?ficos, vari?veis de capacita??o profissional e a Escala de Autoefic?cia Geral Percebida (EAEGP) aplicado ? amostra constitu?da por 289 Assistentes em Administra??o. As t?cnicas estat?sticas para a an?lise dos dados foram estat?stica descritiva, an?lise de agrupamentos, teste de confiabilidade (Alfa de Cronbach), teste de signific?ncia (Pearson). Os resultados mostram um perfil sociodemogr?fico dos Assistentes em Administra??o da UFRN com caracter?sticas bem distribu?das, sendo 48,4% homens e 51,6% mulheres; 59,9% deles t?m idade acima de 40 anos, casados (49,3%), de cor ou ra?a branca (58%) e religi?o cat?lica (67,8%); as fam?lias s?o compostas por at? quatro pessoas (75,8%), com filhos (59,4%) de todas as faixas et?rias; a ocupa??o das m?es destes profissionais ? na maioria do lar (51,6%), com escolaridade at? ensino m?dio completo para pais (72%) e m?es (75,8%). Os Assistentes em Administra??o apresentam n?veis de capacita??o profissional elevados; a maior parte deles comp?e dois grupos de servidores: o primeiro, com servidores contratados recentemente (30,7%) e outro com longo tempo de servi?o (59%); a maioria entra jovem na carreira e nela permanece at? a aposentadoria; 72,4% destes profissionais t?m forma??o acima do requisito m?nimo para o cargo. A an?lise dos n?veis de AET mostra n?veis M?dios e Altos para 72% dos Assistentes em Administra??o; as pessoas, classificadas com Baixa AET, apresentam uma AET m?dia de 2,7, considerada pr?xima ? m?dia geral, apresentada em outros estudos, que ? de 2,9. A an?lise de agrupamentos permite dizer que as caracter?sticas dos tr?s grupos (Baixa, M?dia e Alta AET) s?o semelhantes, podendo ser encontrados nos tr?s n?veis de AET representantes com todas as caracter?sticas investigadas. Os resultados indicam que n?o h? associa??o entre as vari?veis sociodemogr?ficas e de capacita??o profissional com os n?veis de autoefic?cia no trabalho dos Assistentes em Administra??o da UFRN, exceto em rela??o ? vari?vel cor ou ra?a. Contudo, em fun??o do n?mero reduzido de pessoas que se autodeclararam de cor ou ra?a preta (4% da amostra), esse resultado pode ser interpretado como mera casualidade ou as pessoas pretas abordadas no presente estudo apresentam um senso de efic?cia mais elevado do que brancos e pardos. O estudo corrobora outros estudos e evidencia a subjetividade do construto autoefic?cia. Mais pesquisas s?o necess?rias, principalmente com servidores, para a continuidade e amplia??o dos estudos sobre o tema, o que possibilitar? comparar e confirmar os resultados

The study was conducted through a field research, descriptive, addressed quantitatively using statistical procedures. Was studied a population composed of 394 students distributed in three Higher Education Institutions, in the metropolitan region of Bel?m, in the State of Par?. The sampling was not probabilistic by accessibility, with a sample of 254 subjects. The instrument for data collection was a questionnaire composed of a set of questions divided into three sections: the first related to sociodemographic data, the second section was built to identify the work situation of the respondent and the third section was built with issues related to General Perceived Self-Efficacy Scale proposed by Schwarzer and Jerusalem (1999). Sociodemographic data were processed using methods of descriptive statistics. This procedure allowed characterizing the subjects of the sample. To identify the work situation, the analysis of frequency and percentage was used, which allowed to classify in percentage, the respondents who worked and those that did not work, and the data related to the scale of self-efficacy were processed quantitatively by the method of multivariate statistics using the software of program Statistical Package for Social Sciences for Windows - SPSS, version 17 from the process of Exploratory Factor Analysis. This procedure allowed characterizing the students who worked and the students who did not worked. The results were discussed based on Social Cognitive Theory from the construct of self-efficacy of Albert Bandura (1977). The study results showed a young sample, composed the majority of single women with work experience, and indicated that the characteristics of self-efficacy of students who work and students who do not work are different. The self-efficacy beliefs of students who do not work are based on psychological expectations, whereas the students who work demonstrated that their efficacy beliefs are sustained by previous experiences. A student who does not work proved to be reliant in their abilities to achieve a successful performance in their activities, believing it to be easy to achieve your goals and to face difficult situations at work, simply by invest a necessary effort and trust in their abilities. One who has experience working proved to be reliant in their abilities to conduct courses of action, although know that it is not easy to achieve your goals, and in unexpected situations showed its ability to solve difficult problems / O presente estudo apresenta as caracter?sticas de autoefic?cia de alunos do curso de Administra??o que trabalham e que n?o trabalham. O estudo foi realizado atrav?s de uma pesquisa de campo, descritiva, abordada quantitativamente com utiliza??o de procedimentos estat?sticos. Foi estudada uma popula??o composta por 394 alunos distribu?dos em tr?s Institui??es de Ensino Superior na regi?o metropolitana de Bel?m no Estado do Par?. A amostragem foi n?o-probabil?stica por acessibilidade com uma amostra de 254 sujeitos. O instrumento de coleta de dados foi um question?rio composto por um conjunto de quest?es divididas em tr?s se??es: a primeira, relacionada aos dados s?ciodemogr?ficos, a segunda identifica a situa??o de trabalho do respondente e a terceira se??o foi elaborada com quest?es relacionadas ? Escala de Autoefic?cia Geral Percebida, proposta por Schwarzer e Jerusal?m (1999). Os dados sociodemogr?ficos foram tratados com a utiliza??o de m?todos de estat?stica descritiva. Este procedimento permitiu caracterizar os sujeitos da amostra. Para identificar a situa??o de trabalho utilizou-se a an?lise de frequ?ncia e porcentagem o que permitiu classificar em percentual os respondentes que trabalhavam e os que n?o trabalhavam; os dados relacionados ? escala de autoefic?cia foram tratados quantitativamente pelo m?todo de estat?stica multivariada a partir da utiliza??o do software de programa estat?stico Statistical Package for the Social Sciences for Windows SPSS, vers?o 17 a partir do processo da An?lise Fatorial Explorat?ria. Este procedimento permitiu caracterizar os alunos que trabalhavam e os alunos que n?o trabalhavam. Os resultados foram discutidos ? luz da Teoria Social Cognitiva a partir do constructo de autoefic?cia de Albert Bandura (1977). Os resultados do estudo apontaram uma amostra jovem, composta por maioria de mulheres solteiras com experi?ncia de trabalho e indicaram que as caracter?sticas de autoefic?cia de alunos que trabalham e alunos que n?o trabalham s?o distintas. As cren?as de autoefic?cia dos alunos que n?o trabalham est?o baseadas em expectativas psicol?gicas enquanto que os alunos que trabalham demonstraram que suas cren?as de efic?cia est?o sustentadas em experi?ncias anteriores. O aluno que n?o trabalha demonstrou-se bastante confiante em suas capacidades para alcan?ar desempenhos de sucesso em suas atividades, acreditando ser f?cil alcan?ar seus objetivos e enfrentar situa??es dif?ceis no trabalho, bastando investir esfor?o necess?rio e confiar nas suas habilidades. Aquele que tem experi?ncia de trabalho mostrou-se confiante em suas capacidades para realizar cursos de a??o, embora saiba que n?o ? f?cil alcan?ar seus objetivos e em situa??es inesperadas demonstrou ter desenvoltura para resolver os problemas dif?ceis
