PENA T, Gustavo; CANOTO R, Yolanda  y  ANGELUCCI B, Luisa. Academic engagement: a scale. Pág. Educ. [online]. 2017, vol.10, n.1, pp.114-136. ISSN 1688-7468.  https://doi.org/10.22235/pe.v10i1.1361.

Academic Engagement (AE) refers to the physical and psychological resources devoted to academic experience. It is a predictor of learning and personal development, and has three components: behavioral, cognitive and affective. A scale was developed to measure the behavioral dimension of AE. The scale was administered to 906 students in Caracas, after a pilot study, and analyses of reliability, item performance, factorial structure and criterion validity were performed. A factor, defined as Personality Resistant (PR) at an academic level factor, was identified as a reflection of the commitment, control and assertiveness of the student. It is concluded that the scale factor AE and PR are reliable, valid and relevant for predicting academic performance.

Palabras clave : academic engagement; academic hardiness; psychometric analysis; academic performance.
