Resumo

O Teacher Communication Behavior Questionnaire (TCBQ) tem sido usado em níveis de ensino diferentes, em
muitos países, com o objetivo de mensurar a percepção dos alunos do comportamento comunicativo do professor de ciências.
O TCBQ foi traduzido para o Português de acordo com os padrões de adaptação de testes da ITC. Evidência de validade para
a versão brasileira do TCBQ foi obtida com uma amostra de 414 estudantes do ensino médio. A consistência interna do TCBQ
foi adequada e um ajuste adequado do modelo fatorial original foi encontrado por meio de análise fatorial confirmatória. Os
dados brasileiros apresentaram correlações entre fatores similares, no valor e na direção, às de pesquisas internacionais. Foram
encontradas diferenças estatisticamente significantes entre tipo de escola e matéria consistentes com pesquisas anteriores.
