          Abstract

          Resumo O monitoramento do desempenho de projetos por meio de indicadores é um recurso de gestão de grande importância para as organizações, sendo amplamente utilizado o Earned Value Management (EVM). Entretanto, há poucas pesquisas quantitativas que comparam o modelo teórico do valor agregado com a utilização prática na indústria da construção civil no Brasil. Outrossim, alguns autores argumentam que a fundamentação teórica do EVM é utilizada de forma equivocada na construção civil. O presente artigo tem como objetivos principais verificar se os usuários identificam benefícios na utilização do EVM e analisar os fatores críticos de sucesso, limitações e a utilização de acordo com o perfil dos usuários por meio de uma pesquisa quantitativa. A pesquisa foi realizada por meio de questionário do tipo Survey disponibilizado pela internet, tendo tido 106 respondentes entre gerentes e técnicos de planejamento da construção civil. Foi verificado que os dados obtidos na pesquisa se mostraram satisfatórios e validados, com estatísticas adequadas de Alfa de Cronbach e testes de análise fatorial de Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin. Os resultados demonstraram que os respondentes identificaram benefícios na utilização do EVM, apesar de ainda utilizarem o valor agregado de maneira parcial.

          Translated abstract

          Abstract The monitoring of project performance through indicators is a highly important management tool for organizations, and Earned Value Management (EVM) is widely used for that purpose. However, few studies have been undertaken comparing the theoretical value-added model with its practical use in the civil construction industry in Brazil. In addition, some authors argue that the theoretical foundation of EVM is misused in civil construction. The main objective of this article is to verify whether users identify any benefits from the use of EVM and to analyse the critical success factors, limitations and their use according to the profile of users, through quantitative research. The research was carried out through the application of a survey-type questionnaire, made available through the Internet, with 106 respondents (managers and construction planning technicians). The data obtained in the research was satisfactory and validated, having obtained adequate statistics from Cronbach's Alpha and Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin factor analysis tests. The results showed that the users identified benefits from using EVM, even though they still use partial EVM.

          Analyzing Likert Data

          This article provides information for Extension professionals on the correct analysis of Likert data. The analyses of Likert-type and Likert scale data require unique data analysis procedures, and as a result, misuses and/or mistakes often occur. This article discusses the differences between Likert-type and Likert scale data and provides recommendations for descriptive statistics to be used during the analysis. Once a researcher understands the difference between Likert-type and Likert scale data, the decision on appropriate statistical procedures will be apparent.
