The Content Validity in the Design of a Questionnaire on School Coexistence

Having as the main purpose the design of a questionnaire to find out the situation about school coexistence, teachers’ training and their formative needs, a comparative analysis of 11 questionnaires on school coexistence aimed at teachers was carried out. In addition, a panel of experts to guarantee its content validity and the appropriateness of the study was included. The questionnaires, which have 27 questions on average with a predominant qualitative-quantitative combination in their form, are focused on the analysis of the teacher-student relationship, the kind of conflicts and the level of disputes. They do not analyse, however, teachers’ training needs. Experts consider teaching staff as the main responsible for the creation of a beneficial school environment, apart from being the principal factor in the origin of conflict (91%).
