No. of bitstreams: 1 ElsonCV.pdf: 391419 bytes, checksum: 85728e346c01f7fd0f648ae172db2595 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2006-05-19 / Relations between the meaning attributed to work by first year university students and their academic and professional choice were analyzed. The participants were 921 students, 17-52 years old (M = 22; SD = 4.9), enrolled in 16 courses common to two college level institutions of the city of Natal, RN, one public, the other private. A questionnaire was designed for collecting data about the academic-professional choice, with open-ended and multiple choice questions. Work meaning was obtained by means of two questions on centrality and two scales pertaining to the Inventory of Motivation and Work Meaning: value and descriptive attributes. A socio-demographic set of questions ended the questionnaire. Data was entered in a SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) database, allowing for the pertinent statistical analyses, such as frequency, t test, chi square, factor analysis, cluster analysis and ANOVA. Results indicated that the decision about academic-professional career was made by the majority of the participants (in first option, N = 921) without the adequate consideration of the socio-professional reality (80.7%) and personal internal resources (98.5%). When considering the second option (N = 654), only the first criterion was taken into account, but only by 12.5% of the sample. The main difficulties faced by students during the choosing process were, then, made apparent in the data. 46.8% of the participants were unsatisfied with the course they had started and were anticipating unpromising perspectives in relation to it. The first year students took work as the second most important aspect of their lives and demonstrated an idealized vision about it. Five patterns of work meaning were identified. In relation to centrality and the value and descriptive attributes, the university students displayed differentiation in the attribution of work meaning according to course and area of knowledge / Neste estudo foram analisadas rela??es entre o significado atribu?do ao trabalho por universit?rios primeiranistas e a escolha acad?mico-profissional por eles realizada. Foram envolvidos 921 estudantes, entre 17 e 52 anos ( = 22, DP = 4,9), matriculados em 16 cursos comuns a duas institui??es de ensino superior da cidade de Natal (RN), sendo uma p?blica e outra particular. Para a obten??o dos dados relativos ? escolha acad?mico-profissional aplicou-se um question?rio desenvolvido para o estudo, contendo quest?es abertas e fechadas. O significado do trabalho foi apreendido por meio de duas quest?es sobre centralidade e duas escalas contidas no Invent?rio de Motiva??o e Significado do Trabalho: atributos valorativos e descritivos. Utilizou-se tamb?m uma ficha sociodemogr?fica. O registro das respostas aos itens de todo o protocolo deu-se sob a forma de banco de dados do SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Science) o que permitiu que fossem utilizadas t?cnicas estat?sticas pertinentes, tais como an?lise de freq??ncia, teste t, teste qui-quadrado (Pearson), an?lise fatorial, an?lise de vari?ncia (ANOVA) e an?lise de cluster. Os resultados indicaram que a escolha acad?mico-profissional, no tocante ? primeira op??o ao se prestar o vestibular (N=921), fora feita pela maioria dos participantes desprovida de uma adequada considera??o de crit?rios de avalia??o da realidade s?cio-profissional (80,7%) e de recursos pessoais internos (98,5%). Considerando-se a segunda op??o (N=654), apenas o primeiro crit?rio fora levado em conta e, ainda, de forma adequada por apenas 12,5% dos integrantes da amostra. Foram destacadas as principais dificuldades enfrentadas no processo de escolha. Constatou-se que 46,8% dos participantes se encontravam insatisfeitos com o curso iniciado e mantendo perspectivas pouco promissoras em rela??o ao mesmo. Os primeiranistas tomaram o trabalho como a segunda esfera de vida mais importante e demonstraram uma vis?o idealizada acerca do mesmo. Foi poss?vel a identifica??o de cinco padr?es do significado do trabalho. Quanto ? centralidade e aos fatores dos atributos valorativos e descritivos, os universit?rios apresentaram diferencia??o na atribui??o do significado do trabalho de acordo com curso e a ?rea do conhecimento
