“…Em pesquisas após a implementação da Lei de Cotas, que destacavam aspectos positivos da utilização ampla das cotas, foram confirmados o bom desempenho acadêmico do aluno cotista e sua baixa evasão (Campos, Machado, Miranda, & Costa, 2017;Queiroz, Miranda, Tavares, & Freitas, 2015). Evidenciavam ainda o cumprimento do seu objetivo de inclusão social (Ristoff, 2014;Rodrigues, Matos, & Ferreira, 2017;Trevisol & Nierotka, 2016) e sobretudo a racial (Feres & Daflon, 2015;Feres Júnior, Daflon, Ramos, & Miguel Júnior, 2013;Guarnieri & Melo-Silva, 2017;Guerrini, Piconi, Sturion, & Mata, 2018;Silveira, 2018). Alguns estudos apontaram que o mérito se apresentava como fator de constituição de desigualdades sociais e raciais (Souza & Barbosa, 2016;Santos & Scopinho, 2016).…”

RESUMO: O objetivo do estudo é investigar a relação entre o julgamento da justiça de cotas e o nível de competência moral de estudantes e professores. Participaram da pesquisa 317 universitários e 15 docentes de um curso base para engenharias de uma Universidade Federal. Para coleta de dados foi utilizado um questionário estruturado composto por um dilema sobre cotas e oito argumentos relacionados à justiça e oito à injustiça das cotas. Aplicamos ainda o Teste de Competência Moral (MCT_xt), que considera aspectos afetivos e cognitivos do julgamento e remete ao escore de competência - C. Os resultados indicaram o baixo índice C dos participantes, conflito de interesse no julgamento da justiça das cotas e a questão racial como principal fator de discordância. Demonstraram ainda que entre os alunos não cotistas, quanto maior o índice C, mais consideravam as cotas injustas e entre os cotistas, quanto menor o escore C, maior a escolha pela justiça. Para julgamentos pautados na justiça por equidade, como no caso das ações afirmativas, seriam necessários níveis superiores de desenvolvimento moral. A educação tem um papel essencial no desenvolvimento da competência moral dos estudantes e em consequência, na promoção da sua participação na vida social, cívica e profissional.

“…In research after the implementation of the Quota Law, which highlighted positive aspects of the widespread use of quotas, the good academic performance of quota students and their low dropout were confirmed (Campos, Machado, Miranda, & Costa, 2017;Queiroz, Miranda, Tavares, & Freitas, 2015). They also highlighted the fulfillment of their objective of social inclusion (Ristoff, 2014;Rodrigues, Matos, & Ferreira, 2017;Trevisol & Nierotka, 2016) and especially racial inclusion (Feres & Daflon, 2015;Feres Júnior, Daflon, Ramos, & Miguel Júnior, 2013;Guarnieri & Melo-Silva, 2017;Guerrini, Piconi, Sturion, & Mata, 2018;Silveira, 2018). Some studies pointed out that merit was presented as a factor in the constitution of social and racial inequalities (Souza & Barbosa, 2016;Santos & Scopinho, 2016).…”

The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the fairness of quota judgment and the level of moral competency of students and professors. This work was conducted with 317 college students and 15 professors from a base course for engineering at a Public University. We use a structured questionnaire to collect data, composed of a dilemma of quotas and eight arguments related to justice and eight to injustice of quotas. We still apply the Moral Competence Test (MCT_xt), which considers affective and cognitive aspects of the judgment and gives rise to score - C. The results indicated the low C index of the participants, conflict of interest in the judgment of the fairness of quota and the racial issue as the main disagreement factor. Among non-quota students, the higher the C index, the more they considered quotas like unfairness and among quota students, the lower the C score, the greater the choice for fairness. For judgments based on equity, as in the case of affirmative actions, higher levels of moral development would be necessary. Education has an essential role in developing students’ moral competence and, consequently, in promoting their participation in social, civic and professional life.

“…A big increase of household debt, most likely driven by credit supply, was followed by a severe recession and then weak recovery (Garber et al, 2018). This economic stagnation and higher household debt has had an adverse effect on the education market, sharpening competition, notably in the university segment (Silveira, 2018).…”

Since 2014, the Brazilian economy has undergone a process of recession followed by stagnation, with end still unknown. This poor economic performance has provoked an increase in the unemployment rate, causing lower demand in several markets, including education. In this recessive environment, competition in the learning industry has intensified, especially in the university segment. The corporate image and loyalty of students has become a priority to expand market share. This study investigates the effect of the quality of service of a Brazilian private university on student satisfaction, corporate image and loyalty. A total of 112 questionnaires were distributed to students from a renowned private university in the city of Rio de Janeiro and 98 were fully answered. Students were selected by convenience sampling. The data were analyzed through structural equation modeling, based on partial least squares. In line with the work that underpins this study, the quality of the learning service was considered an antecedent of student satisfaction, affecting the corporate image and loyalty. The results showed that general student satisfaction affects the corporate image and loyalty, but not all dimensions of service quality have this effect. Although the main findings show convergence with those obtained in the work that underlies this study, some relevant divergences deserve attention. The Brazilian students in our sample did not attribute high relevance to academic aspects, including excellence of the faculty, since the professor is considered the main barrier to reach the most critical goal for the night students of the Brazilian private university studied, namely a university diploma.
