Abstract: The aim of this study is to analyze evidence of design and construct validity for the content aspect of three self-report subscales developed to measure digital competencies related to the search and management of information and data among Higher Education (HE) students. To this end, a Measurement Instrument Validation Committee (MIVC) was established, comprising experts in the field of digital competency training and assessment. As a result, design and content validity evidence was obtained and analyzed for 33 items organized into three subscales: S1.1 Navigating, searching, and filtering data, information, and digital content (k=11); S1.2 Evaluating data, information, and digital content (k=12); and S1.3 Managing data, information, and digital content (k=10). The analysis of item design and content validity was based on the categories of the Universal Design Evaluation Model (UDEM) and on the criteria of relevance, clarity, simplicity, and accuracy. Subsequently, the Percentage of Agreement among Judges (PAJ) and several Content Validity Indices (CVI) were calculated, including Aiken’s V Coefficient, Lawshe’s Content Validity Ratio (CVR), and Tristán-López’s corrected version (CVR’). The findings indicate that the three subscales and the majority of their items meet the expected quality criteria. However, refinement of certain items (1.1.1, 1.1.2, 1.1.4, 1.1.8, 1.1.10, 1.1.11, 1.2.2, 1.2.5, and 1.2.12) is recommended, and an empirical pilot study is suggested to test the reliability and psychometric properties of the instrument.
