dc.description.abstract [EN] We   report   on   the   development   and validation  of  an  instrument  that measures students’ perceptions of ‘the quality and effectiveness of the learning support’ (for mathematics) during their transition to university. This is achieved through  quantitative  analyses  of students’ survey data – including some predictive modelling with the measure -  complemented  with  insights  from interview data. The construct validation of the measure was performed using the Rasch Rating Scale Model (RSM). Results include fit and category statistics and the construct hierarchy which is presented with  some  extracts  from  interview data. The paper concludes with some educational implications and examples of how this measure can be used to give substantial practical results. es_ES
dc.description.abstract [ES] Este artículo muestra el desarrollo y la validación de un instrumento de medida de las percepciones de los estudiantes de secundaria acerca de, la calidad y la eficacia del apoyo para el aprendizaje de las matemáticas, en el proceso de transición a la educación superior. Para ello, se ha llevado a cabo un análisis cuantitativo de los datos obtenidos mediante un estudio de encuesta que, tomando algunos modelos de predicción, ha conjugado otros datos derivados de entrevistas. La validación de constructo de la medida se ha realizado mediante el RSM (Rating Scale Model) de Rasch. Los resultados incluyen estadísticos de ajuste y de categorías, así como la jerarquización del constructo con algunos extractos de los datos de las entrevistas. El artículo finaliza aportando las principales implicaciones educativas que se derivan de este proceso, mostrando ejemplos de cómo esta medida puede ser utilizada para obtener resultados prácticos importantes sobre el apoyo en el aprendizaje de las matemátticas en los procesos de transición educativa. es_ES
