A avaliação EFAI (Evaluación Fatorial de las Aptitudes1) é uma bateria de testes
multi-fatorial, constituída por 5 componentes, podendo estes ser utilizados
individualmente ou em conjunto.
Na sequencia da verificação do sucesso que a aplicação da bateria de testes EFAI
tem tido em Espanha, país onde este instrumento foi desenvolvido, sentiu-se a
necessidade na sua tradução e adaptação à realidade portuguesa. Nesse sentido, a
presente investigação foi desenvolvida para testar e validar esta bateria, e identificar
a existência de diferenças significativas ao nível dos seus resultados — tendo em
conta o sexo, a área de formação e a área geográfica onde essa formação decorre
(Lisboa e Porto).
Participaram no estudo da validação 189 alunos universitários dos cursos
Engenharia, Psicologia, o Economia/Gestão, 126 do sexo feminino e 63 do sexo
masculino, estudantes das cidades de Lisboa e Porto.
