Validez de contenido y juicio de expertos de la batería de evaluación de procesos lectores PROLEC-R.

Abstract

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine the sufficiency, coherence, relevance, and clarity of the items in the PROLEC-R battery for use within the Ecuadorian educational context. A quantitative, descriptive, and instrumental approach was employed. The sample consisted of seven expert judges selected via purposive sampling based on inclusion criteria regarding academic background and professional experience. The experts evaluated the items across various dimensions using specific matrices to record their ratings and observations. Aiken s V coefficient was used; V values ranged from 0.80 to 1.00, with a predominance of coefficients between 0.90 and 1.00 indicating "excellent" content validity while a small subset of items yielded values between 0.80 and 0.89, considered to have "good" content validity. The results provide favorable evidence of content validity and support the theoretical rationale for proceeding with studies on application, reliability, construct validity, and the development of norms for the Ecuadorian school-age population.
