Resumen

Contextos avaliativos tendem a ser ansiogênicos para a maior parte das pessoas. Assim, compreender os níveis de ansiedade frente a provas é uma possibilidade para auxiliar o estudante individualmente, bem como compreender processos educativos mais amplos. Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar as evidências de validade de estrutura interna, precisão e invariância na versão reduzida do Inventário de Ansiedade Frente a Provas (IAP). O estudo foi realizado com 1137 estudantes com idades variando de 18 a 63 anos (M = 25,94; DP = 7,37) no estado do Rio de Janeiro. Os resultados indicaram uma estrutura formada por quatro fatores: preocupação, falta de confiança, distração e emoção. Também foram evidenciadas boas estimas de precisão, com alfas variando de 0,86 a 0,93. Foram apresentadas evidências de invariância quanto ao sexo para o IAP, com as mulheres apresentando maiores níveis de ansiedade. Novos estudos são sugeridos para buscar por evidências de validade de critério e controle de vieses de resposta no IAP.
