BARROS, Leonardo de Oliveira  e  REIS, Andreza Nathielly Batista. Academic and career trajectory of university students who are pregnant or have children. Práxis Educativa [online]. 2024, vol.19, e22624.  Epub 31-Maio-2024. ISSN 1809-4309.  https://doi.org/10.5212/praxeduc.v.19.22624.013.

In this paper, the objective was to analyze how the permanence and progress of pregnant university students or those with underage children during their undergraduate studies occurs. One hundred and thirty-one women participated in this research, of which 90.1% already had children, 50.4% did not need to interrupt their degree due to pregnancy, and 45% declared themselves as brown. The participants responded online to the Social Support Scale, Academic Motivation Scale, Macleod Clark Professional Identity Scale and to a demographic questionnaire. The results were analyzed using the SPSS software (version 21) and indicated correlations between academic motivation, professional identity and social support. Demotivation was negatively correlated with professional identity and social support. Mean differences were found for social support and motivation factors depending on family and paternal support and domestic responsibility. It is concluded that these constructs are important in building a satisfactory career for these students.
