Psicometria, Análise de dados, Mecanismo de geração de dados, Modelos reflexivos, Modelos formativos, Análise de redesResumo
A escolha da análise estatística de dados deveria ser guiada por uma análise crítica que fundamenta a relação teórica entre construto e seus indicadores. Este teórico artigo faz uma revisão dos três principais paradigmas psicométricos e suas propostas de explicação da relação entre os indicadores e seus construtos. A discussão é iniciada com o paradigma padrão que guia a construção e análise de dados na psicologia, os modelos reflexivos. Em seguida, é realizada uma descrição dos modelos formativos e, por fim, a proposta da Análise de Redes como alternativa. São apresentadas as definições, consequências e limitações do uso de cada modelo de medida, bem como uma reflexão na tomada de decisão sobre quais mecanismos de geração de dados são mais apropriados.
