Researchers’ interest in the learning process at university context, and in its evaluation, has increased in recent years. Great deals of papers have studied this process and the role that learning strategies play in it and how to measure them in an objective and reliable way. Following this trend, the aim of this study is to validate the Cuestionario de Evaluación de las Estrategias de Aprendizaje de los Estudiantes Universitarios (CEVEAPEU) in a sample of 238 Peruvian university students. Results examined factorial validity, reliability and validity evidence of the questionnaire. In order to test factorial validity of the affective, support and control strategies and information process strategies scales, two confirmatory factor analyses were estimated. Structures of 15 and 10 factors, originally proposed by the authors, were tested. Cronbach’s alpha was 0.879 for the first scale and 0.886 for the second one. As regards criteria validity, academic achievement was positively correlated with strategies of self-efficacy and expectations, context control, control/self-regulation, conception of intelligence as something changeable, information organization, personalization and creativity, information elaboration, storage, memorization, use of mnemonics, information selection, transfer, use of information, storage, simple repetition and management of resources to effectively use information. Current validation offers satisfactory results (equivalent to those of the Spanish context) of internal consistency, factorial and criteria validity in a sample of Peruvian university students, extending the existing literature in two ways: providing a first validation of the CEVEAPEU using confirmatory factorial analysis; and exploring the use of the questionnaire in a transcultural approach in Peru.
