Given the lack of evidence in this area, the general objective of this study was to describe and apply an instrument designed to measure children's rights in Chile based on the day to day practices of social operators who work with children and adolescents, in educational, health, justice and psychosocial development centers. The sample consisted of 407 participants (including teachers and psychologists). The instrument takes into account the four fundamental principles of the Convention on the Rights of the Child: non-discrimination; the best interest of the child; the right to life, development and survival; and the right to be heard. The preliminary results suggest that there are statistically significant differences in the degree of fulfillment of rights in relation to each fundamental principle. The internal consistency of the instrument, its adaptation to measure the fulfillment of each principle and the population that receive assistance are discussed, as well as application of the instrument with general and specific child populations.
