ResumoO objetivo desse estudo foi traduzir, adaptar e validar o Inventário da Consciência Metacognitiva (ICM-Jr), criado por Sperling, Howard, Miller e Murphy (2002), para uso no Brasil. 698 estudantes dos ensinos fundamental e médio das cidades de Juazeiro-BA e Petrolina-PE compuseram as amostras de dois estudos. No primeiro observaram-se evidências de validade fatorial e consistência interna da versão traduzida e adaptada do instrumento, sugerindo sua adequação para avaliação da metacognição em adolescentes brasileiros. As análises a respeito da dimensionalidade da escala corroboram o modelo bifatorial de Sperling et al. (2002), composto pelos fatores "Conhecimento da cognição" e "Regulação da cognição". Por fim, estudantes do ensino médio obtiveram escores mais elevados que os do ensino fundamental, quando se considerou apenas o período intermediário da adolescência. Os resultados são discutidos a partir de estudos recentes sobre metacognição, além de considerações a respeito da realidade sócioeducacional do contexto da pesquisa. Palavras-chave: metacognição, adaptação, validade fatorial, adolescentes AbstractThe aim of the current research was to translate, to adapt and to validate the Metacognitive Consciousness Inventory (ICM-Jr), by Sperling, Howard, Miller, and Murphy (2002), for its use in Brazil. 698 students enrolled in middle and high school levels, in the cities of Juazeiro-BA and Petrolina-PE, composed the samples of two studies. In the first study, validity evidences of the translated and adapted version of that instrument were found, suggesting its adequacy for evaluation of metacognition in Brazilian adolescents. Analyzes regarding the dimensionality of the scale corroborated the two-factor model of Sperling et al. (2002), composed by the factors "Knowledge of cognition" and "Regulation of cognition". Finally, 15-to 16year-old in High School scored higher than those in the Middle School. The results are discussed in the light of recent studies on metacognition and considering the socio-educational reality where the research took place.
