Este estudo centra-se nos processos de mudança do autoconceito no período designado por pós-adolescência e traduz-se num estudo
comparativo entre os níveis de autoconceito global de estudantes do ensino superior, iniciantes e finalistas. Recorrendo a uma metodologia de cariz quantitativo, a nossa amostra foi constituída por 552 sujeitos. Para a avaliação do nível de autoconceito global, valemo-nos da adaptação do Self Description Questionnaire III realizada por Faria e Fontaine (1992) a estudantes universitários portugueses. Concluímos que não existem diferenças significativas entre os dois grupos de estudantes.
Esses resultados podem ser compreendidos com base nas experiências e ansiedades vivenciadas pelos estudantes do ensino superior, quer no processo de adaptação ao contexto acadêmico, no caso dos que estão a
iniciar a formação, quer na antecipação de reais dificuldades de inserção no mercado de trabalho, no caso dos finalistas.
The present study is centered in the changing processes of self-concept in the period assigned as following-teenage years and is expressed in a comparative study of global self-concept levels, between beginners and finalists higher education students. Based on a quantitative methodology, our sample was composed by 552 individuals. To evaluate the global self-concept level, we used the Self Description Questionnaire III, adapted by Faria and Fontaine (1992) with Portuguese university students. We conclude that there doesn’t exist significant differences between the two groups of students. These results can be understood from the experiences and anxieties lived by higher education students, both in the adaptation process to the academic context, in the case of beginners, or in anticipation of real difficulties in labor market integration, in the finalist’s case.
