| Sumario: | This study analyzes the perception of accounting students concerning social responsibility, verifying the determinants of student engagement on social responsibility in the university context. For that, a survey was carried out with 210 accounting students of a public university located in the interior of the State of Ceará. Descriptive analysis, exploratory factor analysis, T-test, and multiple linear regression techniques were used. The results showed consistency of the Scale of Perceptions on Social Responsibility in HEI. Also, it was verified the existence of statistical differences in the scale's dimensions concerning the respondents' profile. In addition, the findings show that student engagement on social responsibility is influenced by perceptions about the actions promoted by the HEI and the relevance of social responsibility in professional training, as well as by gender, age, and semester. Thus, it is concluded that the actions promoted by the HEI, either through lectures or in the classroom itself, had the potential to engage students in social responsibility practices. |
