The objective of this work was to perform the construct validity and reliability study of the CEADED instrument that evaluates attention to diversity among dance students at the university level. An instrumental study was carried out based on the following steps: 1) determine the validity of the construct through the use of factor analysis; and 2) analyze the reliability of the instrument. The instrument was applied to a sample of 453 dance professional students from various universities in Mexico, and the factorial analysis was carried out using the method of extraction of factorization of principal axes iterated with Oblimin Direct rotation. The factorial analysis showed eight factors that explained 65.260% of the variance and the reliability was of a Cronbach's alpha of 0.957.

The purpose of this article was to diagnose the difficulties in oral competence presented by students of French as a foreign language aspiring to level B1 of Alliance Française in San Luis Potosí (Mexico). A quantitative and qualitative study was carried out, two instruments were used to collect the data: a socioformative analitic rubric to evaluate oral competence through five components (pronunciation, vocabulary, coherence and cohesion, grammatical competence and interaction) and semi-structured interviews were conducted with 17 evaluators. A sample of 247 Spanish-speaking students aged between 13 and 45 participated in the evaluation. The results showed that the main difficulty is the lack of vocabulary and the factors found are the influence of the mother tongue and a second language that is English, as well as fear of native teachers. In-depth studies are suggested on each of the...
