RESUMO
Este trabalho tem como objectivo verificar se o autoconceito dos alunos, avaliado pela escala PHCSCS-2, e o ambiente da sala de aula, analisado pela escala APSA, são relevantes na explicação do rendimento académico. Participaram 217 alunos (112 rapazes e 105 raparigas) do 3.º Ciclo do Ensino Básico, de uma escola pública do norte de Portugal. Para o tratamento dos dados recorreu-se a modelos de equações estruturais. Constatou-se que o autoconceito e o ambiente de sala de aula têm um impacto positivo e significativo no rendimento académico dos alunos (Língua Portuguesa e Matemática), bem como o autoconceito afecta positivamente esse mesmo ambiente. São discutidas implicações educativas dos resultados.(AU)
