AUSTRIA CORRALES, FERNANDO  and  CASTANEDA FIGUEIRAS, SANDRA. BUILDING A SCALE TO MEASURE POWER RELATIONS IN THE CLASSROOM. Psicogente [online]. 2014, vol.17, n.32, pp.337-351. ISSN 0124-0137.

This paper presents the results of a prospective study of a cohort of psychometric validation aimed to validate a bank of 20 items that sought to measure the power relations in the classroom. These reactive were subjected to expert judgment, to analysis of factorial validity and invariance of parameters. With the best reagents, Power Relations Scale in the Classroom (PRSC). This scale was applied to a sample of 198 nationally students. The results indicated that the PRSC has psychometric properties that ensure the quality and accuracy in their measurements. This study allowed discussing theoretical and practical implications in the evaluation and promotion of college learning.

Keywords : Power relations; Construct validity; Item response theory; Structural equation modeling; Confirmatory factor analysis.
