摘要:The current research highlights the need to find alternative ways to measure learning transfer by means of diagnosis of barriers and facilitators of training effectiveness (Baldwin & Ford, 1988 [1]; Noe, 1988 [2]; Pineda et al., 2010 [3]; Quesada et al., 2011 [4]). We developed the MEVIT model, a 40 items, 5-point Likert scale questionnaire measurings the factors affecting learning transfer. Our sample consisted of 458 employees of the Public Administration of Catalonia –PAC-. After an exploratory factor analysis, the results showed “motivational elements” as being the most valued factor by participants in training, with an average of 4.49 out of 5s. The least significant factors are related to the “work context” (3.73), followed by the “elements of control over transfer opportunities” (3.74). The study provides a reliable tool to measure what facilitates and what hinders learning transfer and, therefore, the areas of improvement for an efficient and cost-effective training in the PAC.
