LEITAO, Thiago Miguel Sabino de Pereira; MORICONI, Gabriela Miranda; ABRAO, Mariângela  e  SILVA, Dayse Souza da. Análise acerca do boicote dos estudantes aos exames de avaliação do ensino superior. Est. Aval. Educ. [online]. 2010, vol.21, n.45, pp.87-105. ISSN 0103-6831.

This study examines the phenomenon popularly known as a boycott of exams that make up the evaluation system of higher education in Brazil, focusing on the National Assessment Examination of Student Performance (Enade). Thus, it highlights the magnitude of the boycott over time, between public and private institutions, by type of boycott. Investigating the last three years of the Enade assessment, econometric analysis identifies the variables that mostly affect a student's decision to adopt this behavior. These tests allowed us to draw a profile of the student who adheres to this phenomenon. As its main conclusion, the study suggests that the boycott, when analyzed in an overall way, does not appear significant, since the percentage of occurrence was never more than 3.5%, but when analyzed by course, the incidence of this phenomenon showed wide variations. This article also reveals some possible reasons for this behavior, including the student's dissatisfaction with the course and/or institution.
