The aim of this study is to analyze the validity of the content included in a standardized questionnaire used
to evaluate components related to professional values and attitudes during Problem-Based Learning (PBL)
sessions. PBL is a well-established learning method used in the medical sciences of the School of Medicine
of the University of Girona (Spain) and is currently included in its curriculum. The validity of the content of
the instrument was determined by posing open-ended questions to seven experts. A qualitative analysis of
the experts’ opinions revealed the items that are relevant for evaluating the professional training of medical
students. The questionnaire appears to be a valid tool for evaluating the professional values analyzed during
PBL sessions. Fourteen of the twenty items are relevant. To improve the content validity of the
questionnaire, three new items should be added: student autonomy, using appropriate nonverbal language,
and capacity of controlling emotions
