Instrument validation by expert review for public policies of gender equity in the educational system

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to socialize the validation process carried out by expert review associated with the research on the design and evaluation of gender equity public policies for the City of Bogota District Educational System. Three instruments were validated, containing a total of twenty-seven items distributed in three phases: exploration, evaluation, and construction. Nine experts participated in the process, evaluating four criteria on a five-point Likert scale for each item: sufficiency, clarity, coherence, and relevance. The reliability measurements were carried out using the Aiken V statistical test. The results led to the adjustment of seven items that obtained values lower than 0.8, particularly in the clarity and sufficiency criteria, aiming to improve the instruments that will be submitted to the first educational community group.
