Resumo(s)
Conceptual Framework: Self-perceptions influence individuals’ receptiveness to the
task and the way they pursue its accomplishment. Therefore, it is of the uttermost
importance to analyze the influence of trainee self-concept in their engagement toward
tasks. Objectives: The present study aims to analyze how self-concept influences
the engagement of trainees attending the Training Courses for Petty Officers 1st
Class (CFS). Methodology: The study methodology made use of the Utrecht Work
Engagement Scale (Schaufeli, Salanova, González-Romá & Bakker, 2002), the
Assessment Scale for Trainee Engagement in the Portuguese Navy (Frade & Veiga,
2014; Frade, 2015), as well as the Assessment Scale for Trainee Self-concept in the
Portuguese Navy (Frade & Veiga, in press; Frade, 2015). The sample was comprised of
149 trainees from the CFS of the Portuguese Navy. The data collected were analyzed
using SPSS software. Results: The results point to the important influence of selfconcept
in the engagement dimensions as a way to encourage the engagement of
trainees from the Portuguese Navy. Suggestions to future studies are presented.
