Resumen

Se presentan los resultados de una investigación realizada para validar la Teoría Cognitivo Social de Desarrollo de la Carrera (SCCT). Formulada por Lent y colaboradores, esta teoría explica las decisiones vocacionales de los estudiantes atendiendo a la relación que se produce entre distintas variables: las creencias de autoeficacia, las expectativas de resultado, el interés y las metas. Se ha querido validar el modelo en el contexto universitario español, usando una muestra de estudiantes de ingeniería. Se ha realizado el análisis de las propiedades psicométricas del instrumento, se ha evaluado la estructura factorial de la prueba, a través del programa Factor; se ha analizado la consistencia interna de los factores y; posteriormente, se ha verificado el modelo SCCT en nuestra población mediante el procedimiento de Ecuaciones Estructurales. Los resultados validan la mayor parte de las hipótesis derivadas de modelo SCCT, destacando el papel preponderante de las creencias de autoeficacia para explicar la carrera vocacional.
