- Abstract
This study is the result of a research project funded by the Seneca Foundation (Murcia - Spain). We designed a tool to discover the students' perceptions about the different instruments that are applied in the assessment process and subsequent qualification in the field of Social Sciences, Geography and History. The instrument used was an original scale consisting of several items grouped into different factors, which receives the generic name EPEGEHI-1 scale. In that sense, we have focused our attention on this perception, analyzing assessment procedures, the test (as the main instrument rating), the information that students have about the criteria for classification of that instrument, the final grade obtained and the perception of that grade among the students. This is a study with quantitative methodology, conducted with a sample of 1,117 students of 3rd and 4th year of Secondary Education (15 and 16 years old). The instrument has good psychometric properties. The data shows the significant relationships between different variables influencing the final perception of the assessment and qualification.
