Resumo

L’avaluació de la transferència de l’aprenentatge és un procés necessari perquè els professionals avaluïn l’eficàcia de la formació i els seus resultats en els treballadors. Aquest article explora una forma alternativa d’avaluar la transferència: a través de l’estudi de facilitadors i obstacles de la transferència. L’objectiu és validar el model FET (factors per avaluar la transferència), en una mostra de treballadors espanyols amb una anàlisi factorial confirmatòria. Es va aplicar l’escala FET en espanyol a una mostra de 2.745 treballadors espanyols de l’Administració pública i l’empresa privada. Els resultats mostren un model de set factors com la millor opció sobre la base dels índexs d’ajust presentats en l’article. Vam obtenir una versió més reduïda de l’instrument, amb una validació de constructe adequada, així com una bona fiabilitat i consistència interna. Aquest model és un pas endavant en la mesura de la transferència indirecta i permet seguir treballant en el model FET per utilitzar-lo com a diagnosi de factors de transferència i augmentar la probabilitat de nivells més alts de transferència de l’aprenentatge.
