Abstract

The aim of this paper is to analyze the new questionnaire designed by the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) to evaluate its teaching staff (SET). To do it, the responses of a 941 students sample were analyzed and the following aspects of the questionnaire were studied: its reliability, dimensionality, construct and criterion validity; concluding with a differential study considering variables such as gender, disciplinary field, perceived difficulty level or subject interest. The results suggest high internal consistency and an essential unidimensionality that fits to the theorical dimensions enabling a formative use of information.
