[Faculty's behavior in undergraduate nursing teaching: the students' perception].

The purposes of the present study are: to identify faculty's predominant behaviors in undergraduate nursing teaching, according to the students' perception and to classify them in different groups of faculty, relating them to the teaching framework. Data were obtained through questionnaires, applied to fifty-two students from the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul. Considering the results obtained from both periods, we can conclude that there is a certain plurality in the faculty behaviors, with a predominance of teachers concerned about contents, methods and techniques, with characteristics of the traditional, behaviorist and cognitive frameworks.
