Abstract(s)
Este estudo visa contribuir para a discussão do desenvolvimento epistemológico na adultez emergente. Consiste na descrição do desenvolvimento epistemológico dos estudantes do ensino superior e na identificação de variáveis associadas. Neste sentido, são apresentados dois estudos realizados na Universidade da Madeira, em 2010 e 2016, com 295 estudantes no estudo 1 e 232 estudantes no estudo 2, do 1º e 2º ciclo de diferentes áreas de formação académica. Nos resultados não se verificou a progressão desenvolvimental esperada em termos de um pensamento absolutista para um pensamento mais relativista, mas sim um aumento do absolutismo conforme se avança na formação académica. Em ambos os estudos, os resultados mostraram que o desenvolvimento epistemológico dos estudantes varia em função de variáveis sociais e académicas.
This study aims to contribute to the discussion of epistemological development in emerging adulthood. It consists of the description of the epistemological development of students of higher education and the identification of associated variables. In this sense, are presented two studies carried out at the University of Madeira, in 2010 and 2016, with 295 students in study 1 and 232 students in study 2, of the 1st and 2nd cycle of different academic areas. The results did not showed the expected developmental progression in terms of an absolutist thought to a more relativistic thought, but rather an increase of absolutism as students progress in academic formation. In both studies, the results showed that student´s epistemological development varies according to social and academic variables.
