Design and validation of an evaluation instrument that assesses the pro-environmental behavior of Mexican university students
Abstract The purpose of this research was to design and validate a research instrument that delimits the degree of pro-environmental behavior (CPA). For the design and validation, the instrument was subjected to a review with specialists in the area. Subsequently, it was applied to the student community of the Autonomous University of Guerrero (UAGro). To define the adequacy and reliability of the items, along with their comprehension, was applied to a pilot group of 76 students. During the first review, the research instrument was approved by 15 experts, who also made suggestions. The reviewers endorsed the validity of the items’ content, and an optimum reliability score was obtained (Cronbach's alpha: 0.778). It is concluded that the evaluation instrument is valid in content, reliable, and accessible to monitor and evaluate the pro-environmental behavior in students.
