ABSTRACT
Introduction: Developing aptitudes to facilitate the pathway toward the learning process and the elaboration of knowledge in students of baccalaureate in nursing is basic for their formation, among those, the critical reading of theoretical texts. In order to consider these attributes in the learning process, a special emphasis on the way in which the instruments of evaluation are built is required. These instruments need to be close to the objective reality of the evaluation.Objetive: To construct and validate an instrument that allows identifying the way how baccalaureates in nursing students approach to theoretical sources of information during their formation process.
Methodology: An instrument of critical reading of theoretical texts was constructed and validated, after a reviewing and analysis by a group of experts in critical reading. The instrument was integrated by 86 items and was applied to a pilot group (students in the level of the seventh semester of baccalaureate in nursing).
Results: The internal consistency was determined through the Kuder-Richardson test, number 21, and coming out score of 0.96.
Discussion: Construction and validity process for an instrument need to be survillace on its epistemology development and reinforcement in order to get a posture with coherence, pertinence and congruence as a part of evaluation on the educative process.
