Abstract

This article forms part of a project of analysis of context variables, that seeks the design of questionnaires that improve the current assessments of educational systems, providing more information that explains these systems results. Specifically, once several context variables in the educational field had been reviewed, we submitted the work made about the functioning of a scale that measures the students' perception of Classroom Social Climate, both in elementary and secondary school, chosen by non-probabilistic sample. The methodology proposed for the development of the project, considering the characteristics of the sample and the nature of the variables, is focused on a validation process of both its content and its construct through committees of experts, and on the metric analysis of the scale. The results achieved take us, on the one hand, to offer a suitable definition of the construct Classroom Social Climate. On the other hand, a) We verify the high level of the scale of internal consistence. b) The merger of certain items of the scale into factors, making it possible to reduce their number, and c) The confirmation of differences between levels of perception of Classroom Social Climate in the assessments given by the students. These results take us to proposing a new scale that was made up by a group of items aimed to measure what we intend: "the perception that each member of the classroom has of the daily internal life".
